Yiu Cheong, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Great stay

Stayed here solo for 2 nights whilst travelling Switzerland. It’s a 5 minute walk to the lake but maybe 20 to the more central part. Location was fab 5 minute walk to bus stop. Kitchen/toilets were great & clean. Bedrooms were outdated but for the price especially including breakfast can’t complain.

caithesan, 1-night trip

2/10 Terrible

Having to make your own bed is the bare minimum! Absolutely insane!!
2-night trip

4/10 Poor

The facility and service was great, but they allow young kids and young teens to stay at the facility and made the whole experience significantly worse with noise and running around the collidors late into the night
Thomas, 2-night trip

Very friendly staff, modern facilities and nice breakfast - in short, it was a great experience!
Alexandra, 1-night trip

Excellent hostel. Clean, friendly, secure. Easy check in. Only a couple streets away from some good food spots. Enjoyed my time here as a solo female traveler! Good breakfast as well.
Anne, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

This was a wonderful place to stay if you are a solo traveler! It has clean rooms, a big free breakfast, and many of the best places in Geneva are within walking distance. The front desk staff are also friendly and very helpful!
McKenna, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Simply welcoming Clean and nice place to stay on budget
3-night trip

6/10 Okay

The location and overall condition were good but they could use more showers and bathrooms. Additionally, the breakfast is somewhat limited but is adequate. I was going to have dinner there one night but there were literally about 100 teenagers for an event and the chaperones had them start lining up for dinner at the same time as I was entering so I took a pass.
