Playground Loru is located in the children's area on the third floor of Helsinki Central Library Oodi. Families can use the playground and the nearby children's books, games, play equipment, story room, and other family facilities in Oodi's children's area. It works especially well as an easy indoor stop with babies, toddlers, and young children in the city centre.

- Oodi's official accessibility information describes accessible facilities, lifts, and accessible toilets. The playground is on the third floor, so the lift route matters for prams, wheelchairs, and mobility aids.

- Weather notes
- A good option for rainy, cold, and windy days because the play space and children's area are indoors.
