One of the cleanest hostels i've ever seen. Free wifi in rooms makes it easy to check directions/decide where to go/what to do. Comfortable beds, all good!

For geneva you can't get more for less. So it was an excellent option.

Wow. This place is aggressively boring. It's more of a dorm than a hostel. The people who run this place are not in it for the joy of travel, and there's a vaguely condescending attitude towards guests. I guess that's your prerogative when you're in the most expensive city in the world and have almost no competition.

comfy bed. decent kitchen/bathroom/toilet with nice set of appliances - if u don't mind sharing. room's clean. price is great for a room like this. but not particularly close to the bus stop or the station. however Geneva is a small city itself so walking across one block or two is harmless.

Mitten in der Nacht machten Hostelbewohner Radau auf der Strasse. Der Nachtwächter des Hostels unternahm nichts. Darauf haben wir die Polizei avisiert, diese kam auch nicht.

The location is convenient, but there are so many thieves and robbery near around the train station recently.

A big Thankyou to all the staff there especially Gabriela, as I fell ill shortly after arriving in Geneva. The staff arranged doctors and additional nights of accommodation, as they became available. Even the painters redecorating, were helpful! The location is close to the train station and on the tram line, so easy access for the sights I wanted to see. You can book your onward train journey from reception and wifi is even in your room which was a lifesaver for me. Comfy beds too! Thanks!!

A very basic place, with not too much facilities. Has good location, next to the central train station and central streets.

Really close to the train station. They had a few board games that could be used and Skype on some of the computers.

I stayed in private room with shared bathroom--thought it would be shared with another room but it was hallway like dorms. It was clean. Location is about 10 to 15 walk from train station. Helpful staff.

I liked this hostel. Though it wasn't the "home style" hostle I prefer, this place had everything I needed and more (wifi, washers and dryers, kitchen, nice clean showers and bathrooms). I would stay here again.

A good hostel, staff very helpful, close to all tourist places, even they give a transport card for all time you stay there, do not think twice this is the place to book when you want to go to Geneva.

This was my first hostel experience and it was excellent! Free wifi, free towel and free day lockers (just bring your own padlock!). Plus, the gift shop is veryyyyy reasonably priced, which helps since Geneva is the 3rd most expensive city in the world! I highly recommend!!

This hostel was very clean and comfortable. It was not a very pretty location but it was walking distance to all the sights and the train station. You also get a transit pass when you check in. The staff was friendly and the bathrooms were great. If it had a breakfast it would be perfect!
