I believe that the initial experience of a place is largely influenced by the place you stay at.
My friend and I went to Turku in November,2010 for an internship. Finland being an expensive country, we started looking for the most value-for-money place. And when I telephoned the owner of B&B to ask them for room availability and other places to stay at, he was very helpful. Not only did he reserve a room for us (without asking for any booking charge or credit card number), but also, he suggested some other places we could look up. He sent a local Finnish website through which we could easily locate the B&B from the bus station.
The location is fantastic! The intercity buses coming to Turku from Helsinki airport stop at the Turku bus station which is in the square behind Tuureporinkatu (the street on which this B&B is located).
Also, since we reached late, he waited for us, and helped us to our room and lent us his cell phone to speak to the person we were going to intern with.
The room was small, but sufficient. Our room didn't have an attached toilet, but the common toilet was immaculately clean and well kept. The kitchen is decently stocked with tea bags and coffee powder. There is a fine cat hanging around in the house. There is a good spread for breakfast, nothing fancy, but good enough.
Finland is a very safe country, and Turku is even safer. So absolutely no worries on that aspect whatsoever !
My best wishes to the owners of B&B Tuure ! :)
