It was good. They have a kitchen area available; you should bring your own towel (or rent one on site), and bring everything you need for your personal hygiene, including a shower cap.

This is one of the safest hostels I’ve ever stayed in anywhere. Locker storage is abundant with large lockers outside every room. Key entry into rooms and bathrooms is very efficient. Quick walk away from the lake and many restaurants and bars.

Geneva is an extremely expensive country, so I got what I could afford, which was this hostel. But you get what you pay for - in a hostel, people are constantly coming in and out of the rooms. Each floor had one big washroom for women with 3 showers and 2 toilets (only one of which was accessible to everyone). This meant waiting a long time to use the toilet, sometimes. The bathrooms could have been cleaner but I guess that is also part of staying in a hostel, lots of people using them. There are lockers outside of the rooms where you can fit your luggage and use your key card to access the locker, so no need to bring your own lock. There is no air conditioning in the rooms which made it dreadfully hot. So hot that we would sleep with the window wide open every night. I ended up leaving because it was just too much during the Europe heatwave. Free continental breakfast is nice - cereal, yogurt, toast, croissants, coffee, juice. The location is also nice, within walking distance to amenities and Lake Geneva. A 5 minute walk to the tram which can get you everywhere.

Great location close to main train station and the lake. Staff was very helpful and genuine. Breakfast was great! Was hoping for a/c in lobby during heatwave but there was none so that was disappointing. It was very hot in the rooms. No fans. Overall a nice stay.

The amenities were clean and there was a helpful attendant at all times at the desk. Issue was the heat and the linens. The fitted sheets were uncomfortable and there was no air circulation during the heat wave and they do not provide fans to accommodate. Wish they had adapted to the weather and offered us ways to sleep well considering the price of a room.

The hostel was close to the lake which made it a convenient location. There were plenty of areas to sit around both inside and out, the reception had a few reasonably priced drinks which was great. The only thing that would have made it better would be curtains around the bunks for privacy, which I have found in most hostels.

The bed and common rooms are clean, though there is only one shared bathroom for several rooms and hair was scattered on the bathroom floor. It was really hot day, but there was no a/c in the building, making the inside more unbearable than the outside. The location was nice; price was affordable from Geneva standard. Breakfast was okay.

Please ban smoking on your property. That includes the front area. The showers end up soaking clothing that is hanging. Rusty ceilings in showers. Inconvenience of having lockers outside rooms. Phenomenal breakfast. Poor hygiene by guests. People coughing and sneezing into their hands and then picking up tongs. No fans in hot rooms. No sinks in room. Very friendly staff.

Overall ok, nothing special. Lockers were outside of your room. Showers shut-off after 30 seconds, requiring you to keep hitting a button. No soap dispenser as well. Also towel are extra. Breakfast was average, but expensive. Not a social hostle at all.

Very clean and well organised. The cash deposit for use of the fridge was annoying as you return the key, it's because you're leaving, and now you have 30CHF that you might never need again. The kitchen was locked until 8am on Sunday but reception helped me to access my food in time to make my flight. Lots of supermarkets nearby but not sure if I'd feel safe going out at night. Comfy beds, I slept very well.
