helsinki - eurohostel
 
any opinions?
we are heading to tallinn for a day and this seems cheap supposedly clean place
i wonder if it is noisey though- this will be our first port of call so we might need to get a good nights sleep after the flight
we will be there on a wednesday and plan to go to tallinn on the thursday
any foreseeable problems? any tips as to what ferryto catch?
thanks!

No idea about the noise level in Eurohostel.

You have just one day in Tallinn. Just stroll around the old town, climb up the Toompea Hill to see the view. Sit around in cofeterias, have a good lunch, check the Christmas market in the main square, check some handicraft shops, check Katarine Käig (a tiny medieval street. There is a glass blower, a hilarious hat shop, hand-made leather bags and so on.

The biggest katamaran. Smaller ones stay put if there is a storm. And if the storm is very strong, also big catamarans donīt traffic. Then you have regular ferries left, but they take longer.
