Great place for our family to stay overnight. Staff was wonderful, open 24 hours and we got there very late. Breakfast was good, and rooms were comfortable.

Super friendly and helpful staff. Towel rack at the end of the bed. Two sinks in the room as well as lockers. Amazing breakfast. About 20 minutes from Zurich Hauptbanhof. Take the tram/bus not the trai n. Numbers 66/72/13. There was a strange woman in my room. She unpacked 12 cannisters of aerosol cleaners and hung her laundry everywhere. That is not the hostel's fault though. One of the roommates saw her spraying the bathroom with it. Hey, it was super clean! The hostels need better guidelines on shared spaces. Such as do not wake up the entire room at midnight by turning on the lights. Or leaving laundry hanging in the shower. The hostel doesn't provide a Zurich pass.

Enjoyed our stay here. The laundry room was a life saver as our group were caught in heavy rain soon before leaving to travel home, and so we were able to dry our things. Breakfast was extremely basic. Room was a little tired and dated. Staff were helpful and friendly - Overall a good stay & good hostel!

I’m not going to take a star away bc of this, I dont think it is objective for what I am rating, but know that you’re not allowed to speak “at all” after 10:00pm I’m not sure how this is possible because it’s a freaking hostel. While you should be respectful people are coming and going! Someone checked into our room past 10 and they were trying to figure the room situation out (we were literally whispering) and some homeless man in our room didn’t want us speaking at all. The train is easy to navigate to the city but annoying. Also, as a side note for other travelers if you plan on traveling to lauterbrunnen, zurmat, etc. just pay the extra and stay around those areas the trains are great but it is not a quick train ride to get to those places. Stay in Bern it’s close to everything.
