Forenom Serviced Apartments Turku Kakolanmäki
We were almost mauled by a Belgian Malinois that was let loose on our level we were staying at. Messaged the property, however no response or acknowledgement of message/email. A very scary situation for tourists considering no pets are allowed on the property.

Scandic Hamburger Börs
Hotel was beautiful and clean. Staff very friendly. Beds are too small and protective plastic mattress cover is way noisy. Loved eveything except for the bed.
