2/10 Poor

Warning, do NOT stay here

Stay far away from this hostel. The self-identified manager/owner threatened to fire one of his staff members and acted in an unprofessional manner, shouting abusive language at a guest. There can be no excuse for this, especially not in a hostel. This display of character does not belong in the hospitality business.

I enjoyed my one night stay there and the location was ideal as it is near the train station.
Xiaomei, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

This place has seen better days. Somehow, I was expecting more from a Swiss hostel. For example, many of the storage lockers were broken or missing doors. No toilet paper in one of the bathroom stalls. Surfaces felt a little sticky aside from sinks and toilets, which were pretty clean. It was all kind of rundown, which, at.$179 Cdn per night for shared bathroom and showers, wasn't super great. People were really nice though, and very helpful. Fine for a short stay and way cheaper than most everything in Geneva.

10/10 Exceptional

The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. The hotel is very rustic. The room was clean. Bathroom is a bit small. There is a nice shared sitting area on each floor.

10/10 Exceptional

A wash basin in the room. The location is assessable by public transport. Few eataries and take away nearby. Good for 1-2night stay

8/10 Very good

Great room, fits basic needs

The hostel is a very short walk from the main train station in Cornavin. The solo bed rooms are for your basic needs; towels are included, which is a great added bonus (as many other hostels require you to rent out that). My only complaint with the room was that it had a rather strong smell of cigarette smoke; I reckon the staff tried to air out the room as my window was opened when I arrived. Otherwise, I had a great night’s stay in that hostel, and had a great 24 hours in Geneva.

Postventa service is awful. They dont answer after your date. You ask for the bild and nobody answer.
