"Very convenient with a shuttle bus every 20 mins to and from Airport. Room is small but adequate for 2 people for a short stay. As a tourist, also have a free transport card to travel within Geneva, which is again only 20-25 mins away. Only issue is queue for shuttle bus in mornings can be chaotic because of queue jumpers and people without lugguage, which means may miss first bus….so just be aware if catching a fligh"
"Everything you could want from a hostel!
The facilities are well maintained by staff who seems like they take pride and great importance in the cleaning and maintenance work that they do. Was very pleasant to see.
Right next to Lidl and Coop!"
"Upon arriving at the hotel, we did not find a receptionist, then he left one of the rooms and was apparently eating. At midnight around 12:30 am the man or woman who is staying above the room was knocking hard on the floor and then someone who we believe was the same man came down to knock on the door violently, the television was with a regular volume, which means that the rooms do not have sufficient noise insulation. The colors of the walls are super dark. The experience was not good."
