Stay2Night Hostel

This was my first experience in Hostel living. Check in or out was the issue and don’t know how to reach to someone for check in buzz was not working, with luggage and no sim was the challenge, for one night. But was convenient location . House keeper was trying hard to keep the facility clean. For bedsheet charges first time I learned. Ok for one night or 2 . Not more in my opinion. Locker was there for small bag not for big but in room was no issue luckily. Trusting is good but not trusting is better, put in airport lockers if you have trust issues in mind. Overall was good

Was in Zurich for a 3 day birthday festival so this was only in order to have a place to sleep in between the parties. You may not know the city has a red light district, but this property is situated right in the middle of it. There are junkies, gangstas, dealers, prostitutes sitting on the stairs 24/7. But they will politely let you go in/out no problem. Inside you only get a roof and a bed in a room shared with 5 others. Would not leave valuables in the room but am comfortable leaving general belongings. Staying here may not be for everyone, but I picked the cheapest option available (out of habit because I maybe should have grown up by now...), and so my expectation was nothing, and it was met just fine. Your room mates are leaving you alone, as does the general clientele of the neighbourhood. I had everything I needed (well, perhaps except for a window/terrace to smoke a spliff, but that's just me). If/when on a tight budget, I would not mind staying here again.

This isn't really a hostel, not by most people's standards. You're renting a bed in a room shared with mostly long term residents. there is no front desk, you have to communicate via WhatsApp with the "boss". there's also a surprise 5 franc bed sheet fee if you don't bring your own, which isn't disclosed anywhere on the listing.

I know and understand it was/is a hostel but from what was in the property description, our low expectations were not met. If it was longer then the one night I would have cancelled. The outside of the property was gross, as well as the staircase to get to the property, the bathroom was half ripped out. The photos do not at all represent what is inside. Additionally, it was so loud outside it woke me up multiple times throughout the night, that would have been nice to know. It also would have been nice to know that there is no reception/ front desk since it was mentioned in the check in details and also you have to rent sheets if you don’t bring your own. I would not recommend it or stay again.

Bare minimum. 10 euro charge for blanket

Im a traveller and Was my first time in a hostel. Linens were very cleaned and you cook in the hostel

not clean

I have stayed in hostels all over the world so I am making this comparison based off experience. The PROS: The staff was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and helpful. The rooms themselves were very clean. The area is very close to the train station and close to bars and restaurants that are open late. The CONS: The location is very bad. It is loud at all hours so you have to expect that if you want to have the window open (otherwise it gets very hot). Very limited number of bathrooms and not clean. There were MANY people staying here and there were not enough bathrooms to accommodate how many people were staying here. The bars in the area and the area of town seem to encourage people to get drunk and there was very nearly a fight while we were trying to have dinner.

The manager, Oscar, was very kind and compassionate and the interactions with other travelers was convivial and enjoyable. It's location in the slum was a drawback, but nothing dangerous happened.

This place is dirty with triple high bunks, 3-4 bunks per room. Also saw couples bunks. Check-in"desk" was an in use kitchen. Located in un safe prostitute zone. I originallybooked a single room. They bait and switched me into a triple bunk room. I declined and left. Of course they had a no refund policy, I think a scam. Hotels.com wasnt much help getting my money back afterwards. I think the property needs to clarify its listing or be removed. I had to submit a reversal of paymentthroughmy ctedit card, thank that got my money back. Careful here, you've been warned.

Everything is fine

Oscar was great!

All bad. Never rent this place. Is the worst. I want my money back. What a dirty place!

Reasonable value.

Nice hotel to stay

When I entered shared room I had to stop and turn away...It was stinky,noisy with snooring men in very unsafe part of the City...never again...yes I did not slept there after all..and lost money on top of basic pay..for late check in...our train was late.

My friend and I did not find the neighborhood as bad but a lot of locals we meet said to be careful cause it’s a shady area of the city. Upon arrival, we couldn’t find the location and was having trouble entering the code to enter. When we entered the place was run down and the elevator did not work. The place was very tight and it’s based on rooms with three bunk beds with hardly any room to move around. There were guys already on the bed we were assigned. It was not maintained and my friend and I did not feel safe. We immediately left the place and booked an airbnb. I contacted the company letting them know we were not going to stay and if we could get a refund. They were first responsive but then left me on deliver. Overall, I don’t recommend this place regardless of gender. It’s not comfortable, not maintained and there was no lockers or closet to place your items.

I would stay here ever again

Unsafe area, building was run down, and it smelled inside

It’s not worth the money. The area of this hostel is around dumpster, graffiti, strange people hanging around. Don’t feel safe. Room doesn’t have AC. The bathroom is dirty. Staffs are nice and helpful. Checked out 2 nights and changed to another hotel.
