Drinks & Nightlife
Down the road from my place, the local hang-out serves a wide selection of beers but also coffee and other things. They are the neighbourhood bar with board games and easy entrance. Worth the visit if you want a drink!

Getting Around
You can get a metro to the city center or go east-wards. There is also a stop for trams and bus. Search online for "reittiopas" to find public transport connections and more info.
From other guests: Some guests recommend buying a 4 day card, with 2 zones so you could go even to Nuuksio park.

Finns love going to sauna. Nowadays, common saunas in the city are rather rare, but here is one nearby. Note: they are places for relaxing and a good wash, nothing to do with the idea of sauna for sex partners, etc.
