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!

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.

Stayed for one night and it was exactly what you’d expect from a hostel. Would definitely recommend booking a room with a private bathroom.

It was clean but during our stay many tenets were there and did not observe quiet time. It was past midnight and teens were still running, yelling, banging the doors and I have to go to front desk to report this matter.0
