Overall, the combination of prime location and comprehensive amenities makes Tallinn Guest House a highly recommended choice for travelers wishing to explore the old city with ease.
Tallinn Guest House offers a variety of room options that generally balance comfort and affordability. The rooms are clean, comfortable and of good size, making them suitable for short stays of 2-3 days. Guests frequently noted that the beds are quite comfortable with clean, soft bed linens and each bed comes with a power socket and a lamp.

Shared facilities such as the large kitchen and living area are functional, allowing guests to prepare their own meals.
However, some aspects of the accommodations could use improvement. Many rooms lack adequate ventilation, making them stuffy or too hot, particularly at night. There are also complaints about the size of the rooms, especially in dormitories where space is often cramped. Issues like lack of locks on room doors, noise from the street and occasional cleanliness lapses in shared showers were also mentioned.
Overall, Tallinn Guest House provides a positive experience with its clean, comfortable rooms and useful amenities, but it's important to manage expectations regarding room size and temperature control.

The majority of guests find the beds to be very comfortable with many praising the comfort of the mattresses and pillows. Cleanliness is another strong point with numerous mentions of clean bedding, soft bed linen and new mattresses. Super white bedding is also commended, adding to the overall pleasant experience.
However, there are some notable drawbacks. Some beds are reported to sag and others are described as squeaky or shaky, particularly the bunk beds. A few guests mentioned the beds being too close together and lacking personal space. There were minor complaints regarding the absence of bed lamps or curtains around the beds.

Tallinn Guest House has garnered mixed reviews regarding its cleanliness. Many guests have appreciated the clean and comfortable rooms, highlighting that they are well-prepared, cozy and soundproof. The bed linen and towels are frequently mentioned as clean, enhancing the initial impression of a tidy setting. The facility appears to be consistently clean upon arrival with some guests noting the rooms feel freshly renovated with a clean and inviting ambiance.
However, the common areas, particularly the bathrooms and kitchens, have not met the same standards for many visitors. Complaints about dirty bathrooms are recurrent with issues such as mold, unpleasant odors and unclean floors being common points of dissatisfaction. Some guests have noted that the bathrooms can be quite dirty with conditions ranging from wet floors to clogged kitchen sinks and a general lack of hygiene. The bathrooms' inadequate cleaning frequency and maintenance appear to be a major concern, as several reviews mention that these areas could benefit from more regular and thorough cleaning.

Despite these concerns, some guests have acknowledged the efforts of the cleaning staff amid the chaos and a few have found the property to be clean and well-cared for during their stay. The stark contrast in experiences suggests that while the rooms might offer a clean and comfortable respite, the shared facilities need more consistent and rigorous cleaning to meet guest expectations fully.

While some reviews mentioned the staff's youth and occasional absenteeism from the front desk, these were often outweighed by the numerous instances of hospitality and excellent service.
