Compact Studio

Feel right at home with a full kitchen. You’ll find everything you need to fine dine, right in your own studio. Bob’s kitchens are equipped with a fridge, combi-oven, microwave, fridge, sink & dishwasher. All the trimmings included, no need to pack your own frying pan. 

Freshen up for the day — or wind down for a cosy night. This apartment has 1 bathroom and 1 ensuite.

Settle in for a film night with your own TV. The bravest folks can practise their language skills with the local channels.

Katajanokka, AKA “Helsinki’s most decorative district”, is home to historical Jugend-style buildings. You’ll be based in a (very photogenic) Art Nouveau building. Finnish architects add their own stamp, with inspiration from Finnish nature and mythology. 

The apartment is part of the historical Jungmann building. It was recently refreshed and opened as an urban service quarter. When you fancy a break from wandering Katajanokka, you’ll find shops and restaurants right here.

Bob’s paid extra attention to lighting — setting the mood for a cosy night in. The apartment is styled with warm colours, dark cabinet doors and a brick wall, for an effortless industrial vibe.

A big bag won’t ruin your plans to explore the neighbourhood. We work with a trusted local partner who’ll store your bags for free.

No more check-in queues and lost keycards. Check in online before you arrive. Access your room using your phone.

You can do this any time before arriving, no need to wait for check-in day. This helps us get everything ready for your stay.



Find your booking number
You’ll need this to check in online. It’s usually in your confirmation email from wherever you booked (Airbnb, Booking.com, etc.). Look for terms like:

“Booking/confirmation number”

“Booking ID”

“Reservation number”

Can’t find it? Check your spam folder—emails love to hide there sometimes 😉



Get your door code

Do I need to add my credit card to the check-in form?
Only if you want to book extras, like breakfast, or if you'll be staying in one of the city tax locations seen here.

If your stay was fully paid via your company or booking site, you can skip this step—just leave the credit card fields empty and close the tab. Easy!



Didn’t get a confirmation email?
Double-check that your email and phone number are correct.

We always send your check-in info by email—and often via SMS or WhatsApp too. Still nothing? Just reach out and we’ll sort it 👍

Please read Bob's house rules carefully. If you break them, you will be charged a fine and/or your booking will be terminated – and no one wants that!
Respect your neighbours. You're sharing the building with other guests and residents. Be aware of your noise levels and keep things tidy. Quiet hours are 10 pm - 8 am daily.
‍
No parties or any events that might disturb other guests. We know, parties are fun, but people need their rest too.
‍
No pets, unless otherwise confirmed in advance by Bob W in writing. Just reach out with questions!
‍
Shoes off inside. Not only does this reduce noise for your neighbours, but it also keeps the apartment clean and in good shape.
‍
No smoking, even on balconies. Please use marked outdoor smoking areas.
‍
No drugs or use of any illegal substances. If we find a reason to believe this is happening during or after your stay, you will be reported to the local authorities and that’d be a major bummer.

No rubbish in the hallways. Please check your apartment for instructions on how to deal with rubbish and recycling.
‍
Respect our cleaners. Although each apartment is thoroughly cleaned after check-out, please pick up after yourself and use common sense when leaving. If you leave a big mess that takes extra time to clean up, you’ll be charged.

Report any possible damage you see in the apartment during your stay so Bob can fix it.
