It shouldn't be so hard for you to make the bed. I arrived very late at night, if I were to turn on the lights and put on the sheets, I would wake people up. So I had to sleep without the covers. And no wifi reception in the room at all. Other than that, it was a good experience.

A lovely stay for one night! Lots of families & big communal areas with a nice patio & bar. It was a little hot & there were no privacy curtains. Communal bathroom/shower was clean & it was nice to have a sink in the room for a quick clean up. It was also nice to use your card as your key for a locker. A bit of a walk up hill from the train/bus station, but still very accessible.

Stayed only one night but the private room was great with a relatively nice bed and pillow. Easy internet access and a Swiss breakfast. Likes the open seating area.

Very convenient location next to a bus stop. Bathrooms were not very clean, but serviceable. Only two toilets for our floor which created a bit of an issue at times. No towels were provided. Excellent buffet breakfast. Superb common areas for lounging and dining.

This is probably one if not THE best hostel I've stayed in so far during my Europe trip. Breakfast is amazing, room is spacious, bathrooms are clean (in fact the cleaning lemon-y soap they use can be overpowering to smell but it dissipates after a while). Staff is welcoming and helpful. A bit far from city center so you need to walk far or take the tram but it's very close to grocery stores and supermarkets. It's amazing. Love this hostel!

I may not be the best person for this review as this is my 2nd Hostel stay in 9 years. Seeing the weather is cold,heating was insufficient, the floor were bare no carpeting or insulation on top of that(thiss might be due to rarity hostel booking ) there were no slipper. Shower was surprisingly good,again I am not sure if there multiple people living at this room they might having charging issues in terms of comforts rather than actual functionality. Breakfast was surprisingly excellent for Hostel but then when it comes to amenities the hot water takes forever to boil,toasteris at the end of buffet after you have already picked up toast and jammed as there were no extra utensils to keep jam separate to use after toasting.If I have ordered a single room for single occupant I would rather have double bed rather than single bed else it becomes sleeps for two with comfort and convenience compromised. Staff were lovely,helpful and understanding but my understanding is management are being stingy because my understanding of Swiss is are they are very punctual and hate time wasting ,but due to equipment being very slow to use while being shared across multiple hostelier I would invest on the basic and faster amenities that enhances every customer indirect interaction with the hoshel. My visit didn't need that extra spending for hotel,but all things considered would definitely pay upto extra 30-50 CHF if good night sleep if your top priority else good value for money.

Only there for one night but staff was so kind and friendly,I’m a 18 y/o girl and when they realised I was booked in a mixed room with only one guy they changed it FOR me, I didn’t even have to ask! 15 min tram ride from the main part of Zurich, great value for money!

Very good breakfast, cleanliness, comfort and facilities. Only one other person in the room as well which made it even better. Against that, I dislike having to pay 3 CHF for a towel

What you'd expect from a hostel of this size. Breakfast was plentiful and the dinner option was an added bonus. Rooms were small, but having a separate area for lockers and a sink was helpful. The WiFi was patchy in some areas. It is a bit out of town, but there are different bus and tram options nearby.

The facilities and breakfast were great and staff and was lovely. They had a storage room for luggage when I checked in early that was nice. Only issue was getting from the train to the hostel with luggage. There's a target large hill you have to walk up. Other than that it was a great stay!

Bare bones hostel, decent breakfast provided. Bring your own towel and 2fr coin for locker use.

6.0 / 10.0

The breakfast was good. It was quite annoying, after traveling all day, to get to the hostel and to have to make the bed. Most hostels make the bed for you, so this was unexpected.
