Wonderful stay! My room was facing away from the train tracks which I think made some difference, but it was a great view, really helpful staff, and a wonderful expereince.

The Lausanne Guesthouse was in a great location, walking distance from the train station and pretty much everywhere else. Having a kitchen you can use added bonus points for me as eating out in Switzerland would have been harsh. The facilities are really clean to which was great. Only thing that took it down a nitch for me was there was no lockers for large backpacks only valuables.

Very clean and well organized. The staff is helpful and polite. If you miss the breakfast, go out and look for any boulangerie. There's a locker outside any room, but a small storage space inside would be sometimes helpful...

This guest house is extremely well located and clean. I received a day pass for public transportation that helped a lot. I missed though, some good environment for backpackers to get together or have drinks. Rooms are a bit too small and they could put either automatic or paper to dry hands on the WC. Apart from that, my review is very positive.

This hostel felt very clean even though it had many quests. The building was quite nice, and there was a nice kitchen for public usage. The rooms were very quiet, and a location within a 10 minute walk of the train station and near many stores was excellent.

Very pretty building, super close to the train station. Extremely clean, looks newly renovated.Only downsides are the extra fees (sheets, card payment) on top of an already expensive stay, and it isn't an easy place to meet fellow travelers.

It is a really good hostel at excellent location in Lausanne (very near to the main train station and walking distance to the main atractions in Lausanne). My room and other facilities were very clean and staff was very polite and helpful. Would definitely recomend and will stay there again!

You need to pay a tax for this hostel. (Why not add this tax in the price like all the other swiss hostels?) And also another 2 CHF if you don't have a sleeping bag. So pay attention to its price. And the bathroom is too difficult to use: the door cannot be locked and you've got no place to put your cloths (no chairs, only one hook for 3 people). The only way is to take your shower when there is nobody in the bathroom and pray that nobody else will come in until you've finished...

Pretty basic accommodation. Like all of Switzerland it's overpriced. Lockers should be in the rooms not out in the halway. The showers are a bit impractical. No room at all for hanging stuff/ getting dry or anything. Wifi only works in common area.
