    There's no air conditioning — which can be a bit uncomfortable in the heat.

    A simple and basic hotel in a good location. The rooms are clean and the lift is a lifesaver, especially with luggage.

    No air conditioning, at the price we paid, feels unreasonable. The check-in desk also closed at 4, which felt very early - there were no employees available after this point.

    Location was excellent, moments from the Cornavin bus and train station.

    Decent value if you can tolerate the conditions

    The whole hotel felt quite dingier than the pictures would portray. The hallways also smelled of tobacco, which did not contribute to the feel of the place. The cleanliness of the shared bathroom left quite a lot to be desired; there was toilet paper on the floor, the air extractor was covered in dust(not sure if it was even working), and overall, I could not in any way describe the bathroom as clean. The room was also way too hot and stuffy; there was no air conditioning in the room, but there was a small fan that we kept running the whole time to make being in the room somewhat bearable.

    The location of the hotel is excellent, it's within walking distance to many of the city's sights, and there is a tram and bus stop close by. The room was a bit small but serviceable, having a sink in the room is quite helpful when the main bathroom is shared. The attendant at the reception desk was very nice and gave us some good recommendations on where to eat breakfast.

    The room was very small and had a really strong, sickly smell of some sort of air freshener. The bed had a strange shelf immediately above the head, so I had to pull the bed out from the wall to avoid bumping into it. The door was noisy to lock and unlock, so it was difficult to be quiet whilst visiting the shared bathroom.

    Great location near to Central Station. Reasonably clean. Bathroom was shared, but just between three rooms.

    Best option in Geneva for people traveling light and being ready to sacrifice some comfort for saving money

    1. The sound isolation Walls are pretty thin and doors are old, so you can hear people talking in other rooms, water being flushed, etc. This didn’t bother me much since I sleep in earplugs, but when someone tried to enter my room with an old noisy key at 2AM (probably by mistake) even I woke up. 2. No way to clean the bathroom by yourself When sharing space it’s important to be able to clean it up after yourself / other person, not always the staff is around. Yet, when I wanted to enter a shared bathroom, the floor was in water and dirt from someone walking on this water. No slippers are provided and I travel light, so this wasn’t nice — be ready.

    The hotel has a great location and is second cheapest available option in Geneva (after shared-room dorms). Instructions are clear, staff is nice.

    The building is a little old, but you get what you pay for ! Price is still quite high for this quality but i guess geneva is more expensive than my expectations

    Location & checkin times are great for people trying to find a room early morning. The receptionist is a very pleasant man. Made me feel wecolmed, like a seasoned person in hospitality. Value for money.

    It’s a little bit difficult to take a shower in shared shower room. But other than that it was great!

    Room was so cute! Bathroom is shared but there’s a sink in my room. That’s so good point for me!

    The room was too hot and I was unable to find how to cool it. Apart from that nothing negative. All was as advertized.

    The hotel is in a very central location. Easy to reach by walking or public transport. The staff was welcoming and friendly. He explained all the necessary details. The shared bathroom was spotless, well cleaned.
