A very well maintained Hostel with a friendly staff. I found Emily at the reception to be a great ambasador for the hostel. I was really pleased with the quality/price ratio for this accommodation. I would recommend it.

The accomodations were fine, you had to pay for bed sheets, but its cheap so its ok. Nice hot showers. It was very clean and modern. But, so small. I was in a 3 bed room and if I wasn't the only one in the room, it was impossible to turn around without bumping the other person or hitting a wall. The large lockers encompassed more space than the floor did! However, nice location, not far from the train station. Payphones in the building. The staff were a little odd, but they got the job done.

If you are half as poor as I am and you are going to Geneva, stay here. Everything, and particularly eating, is so expensive in Switzerland that you must have a kitchen. This place has a kitchen, new laundry facilities, and they play a movie every night in the foyer, which is nice if you feel like taking the night off or are waiting for your laundry. The staff was very international, and helpful, and you could get into the hostel anytime during the evening with your key. I would definitely go back if I was in Geneva again.

This hostel was very clean. The rooms were modern, and the shower facilities were great. The common room was very nice as well. A bit pricey, and no breakfast was included, but a great one night stop over. The do sell water very cheap!

Nice and clean hostel, finally I found somewhere where the showers smelled of bleach meaning they had acutally had been cleaned! Very hot room though as it was June, and no fans. Also the Amercian guy banging on the doors at 5am screaming "let me in, you've locked me out again" for like an hour and shouting hysterically. Other than that an enjoyable stay.

This hostel is certainly clean, spacious and fairly comfortable. I stayed two nights in mid-June during a HUGE heatwave and it was extremely hard to sleep at night. The window opens out onto an extremely noisy street and there was no air-conditioning. Also, the social area was not very social: it's true about the nightly movie; everyone files in and then straight back out afterwards. A nice, comfortable place but no character.
