Good budget hotel.
It is a good budget friendly hotel in a great location near the Zurich HB, shops and restaurants. The bed was ok. The shower was the smallest i have ever used. I am 5'9" , 175# and it was really tight. If i dropped the soap i couldn't pick it up, there was simply no room. I don't know if i was the lucky one or if the other rooms also have tiny showers.

Not for me!!!
It was pretty horrible!!! The reception area was so small a dthe elevator so small, my scooter wouldnot fit. I had tl stay at another hotel further from the train station. They also had steps to get i to reception. Not mentioned on the reservation and not good for disabled people.

No parking, no lobby, narrow check in desk with 8 people waiting. Paid for a superior room and we had an attic. Could not fully stand on one side of the bed otherwise you hit your head on the low ceiling. Beam for the attic across bed and desk area. Hit head. Do not understand how you can call this a "superior" room and charge an extra fee.

Hotel is fine, not great, not bad. Nice and close to the main train station, used it as a last stop before leaving Switzerland. Wouldn't be returning but also didn't feel like it was horrible.

8/10 Very good

A little bit of a walk from the train station, and not quite in the center but it was still convenient for those who are able to walk. The concept of the hotel is pretty cool with their chocolate fountain in the front. The male receptionist was not so friendly or helpful but the girl, think her name was Meeri or something like that, was extremely nice, patient and helpful. The hotel was in pretty good condition, the room was small but comfortable.

Would go again
If you’re on a budget, this is great. Its super tiny but it had the comforts of coffee/tea and fridge in room which I find are essential. The location is 👌 great. I would definitely come back.

We were disappointed at the amenities and quality of the room we received for the price we paid. The room was extremely small and very poorly designed. We were interrupted by housekeeping mid-morning where they knocked once and then entered without being granted entry/waiting to hear whether someone was in.

Ok hotel.
Air conditioning did not work, reached out to hotel staff 2x and they claimed it was fixed. Our last night the air conditioner was blowing hot air. Asked for a remedy and nothing was provided.
