Ouch!

Helsinki is an expensive city to try to find a hotel room in. It's just as well we're only thinking of staying three nights before moving on to Tallinn the other side of the Gulf of Finland.

(In Tallinn, we will be staying in what looks to be a charming place in the Old Town, a building actually in the old city walls, built on the foundations of a defensive tower.In Helsinki, we'll be in the SAS Radisson Old Fish Cannery.)

I was generally impressed, although I'd have preferred it if my room's LCD TV's welcome screen had not defaulted to requesting my credit card details so that I could avail myself of their p0rn channel every time I turned it on. The free to view channels were a tad buried in the menu :-)

Annoying: my personal preference would be for the TV to show the menu only at checkin. I find it annoying to return to the room and find the set on.
