We charge every customer a mandatory one-time €45 cleaning fee. This fee is charged on every channel we are on (including booking.com, airbnb and our own website). This includes cleaning, apartment restocking, hotel linen & towels etc. Charging a one time cleaning fee is typical for vacation rental providers in the Nordic countries.
Parking in Punavuori is available on the streets. Please see rates and details on the city's site. Easiest way to pay for on-street parking is the "Easy Park" app available in the app stores.
Taxi, Uber - costs around 40€ and takes around 30min. Ask for a fixed price before stepping in the taxi. Another option is an airport train which takes around 30min and costs around 3€ per person. After that you need to take a 15min walk to the apartment. Here’s the link for the train.
You may cancel free of charge until 7 days before arrival. Should you cancel in the 7 days before arrival the total price will be charged. In case you have booked through other sites (booking.com, airbnb, expedia etc), different cancellation policies may apply and all changes/cancellations need to go through the original booking site.

There are a few public parking spots on Heina and Telliskivi streets, but there is no guarantee you will always find a free one. The option we would suggest is our indoor parking spots under our building. We charge a €10 parking fee per day and you can take the lift directly to your suite. Parking will be charged from your credit card.

We love a green mind! Recycled waste can be thrown in the bins located in the wooden enclosure on the right side of the building. You can access it with your apartment access code.

Yes! We have some apartments with a loveseat that opens up to an extra single bed and some apartments with a sofa which open to become a double bed. Additional charges may apply.
We do have a couple of apartments with premium bunk beds that are great for twin bed setup. All of our other apartments have double or queen beds big enough for 2 persons. Some of these apartments also have a twin bed possibility using the extra bed as a second bed (loveseat and sofa).

Your brand wall in the apartment has all the information! ;) You are entitled to use MyFitness Balti Jaam during your stay.
TV switches on when pressing both left and right on/off buttons on the Telia TV (smaller) remote. For Netflix you can use the bigger remote to navigate to the on-screen Netflix button. It is necessary to use your own account for Netflix. And don’t forget to log out of your account before you leave!
To turn off the TV please use both left and right on/off buttons on Telia TV (smaller) remote. This will switch off not only the TV but also the digi-box.
It might be the case that it’s locked - hold down the lock sign for a few seconds and it will turn on.
No. It is a (metal colour) french press and should not be placed on the stove. Boil up some water with the kettle and pour it into the french press over some coffee and then place it on a cork pot mat.
The ones in the apartment are not for sale :/ You can however buy them directly from the artist and supplier: Raili Keiv and Dopper.
About 3 min walk from the house towards Telliskivi tram station, just turn left from the house and walk straight until you come across a red supermarket called Rimi.
