Yuck!
Check in was nice and the worker was friendly. The room however was dirty and the breakfast was limited and not very good. This was probably the yuckiest feeling I’ve felt staying in a hotel before. Maybe I just had bad luck with the room and your stay will be better (?).

Very old and not updated, not comfortable!
The toilet section was extremely small and the toilet itself was very old and flowed forwards instead of towards the back. It’s not a good system for waste disposal! The shower tiles had a lot of mould and the sink fixtures had rust. The bed was very firm and the pillows were small and almost completely flat when you slept on them. And there was no way to control the heat so I had to open the window to let some cold air in even if it was raining! I won’t stay here again if i can help it!

Hotel was clean, excellent location near the train station. Breakfast was included and was bountiful. We had a room on the side by the street - so this was noisy and temp was hard to regulate. We asked for a hotpot and the manager was happy to provide this.

Quite old-fashioned, lacks modern look and feel, very noisy area, not so bad with both shutters and windows closed tightly. Has a lot of character. Windows open up to downtown streets.

Rooms are small and spartan. However, the location is excellent, close to Cornavin and easily walkable to the city center. And they give you a TPG card, so getting around is free. It's a good value if you are not looking for anything fancy.

Great location, friendly staff
Great location - 5 mins walk from railway station, 10 mins from lake/old town. Really friendly/efficient staff and a great breakfast - included in the price. Rooms were perfectly fine, if a little basic and in need of a re-fub - but compensated for 10 times over by location and staff. also provides free local transport passes, which we used extensively on the trams and buses

This hotel is a dump. The room was like something from 1950s soviet era. Bathroom very small and dimly lit. Overall felt like it should have been half the price I paid. But it was my first night in Geneva and it is close to the rail station.

We messed up on check-in. Confusion was our fault, but then the rooms are nothing like the pictures. Filthy. Mold literally everywhere. We took plenty of pix to confirm our findings. Also, very difficult to find. Probably many better choices out there.

Nice place, adequate for solo business traveller
The reception staff were very helpful. For example, I'd forgotten a toothbrush so they directed me to the nearest open pharmacy at 10:30 pm. Whilst certainly a clean room it was sparse and lacked power sockets. Free wifi whilst expected nowadays is designated via floor and was fairly fast. Breakfast lacked and formality but the buffet was adequate and I would stay here again on business. if you were bringing your family, perhaps a bigger and more modern hotel would be preferable.

Ok hotel
The rooms are dated and the pillow is small and thin. The bed is good but the room walls are thin which makes it noisy during the night if the street or other occupants are loud. The female receptions are lovely but the male receptionists can come across as being a bit rude and strange at times. If you are after a cheap and convenient location in Geneva this will be the hotel for you but if you are after something better than normal standard do consider other hotels.

Old condition
The only good thing about this hotel is the location. It is very closed to the Geneva train station, a 5 minute walk max, and walking distance to old town. Hotel elevator is tiny and it fits only one person with luggage. There is no AC in the room so if you open the window to sleep, be prepared to deal with the street noises, especially from motorcycles. Breakfast is on the first floor and don't expect a lot but the coffee is hot. One hotel staff points the wrong direction to the UN. It is not even remotely closed and even with the Geneva sbb cff train schedule booklet, he can't find the time from Geneva to airport. I really gave up on that staff. Overall, if you are under a budget, then go for this one. If you rather enjoy a nice stay during your travel, pick another hotel.

Think again before you choose this hotel. I didn't expect neat and tidy one because this is cheapest one that I could get, but a lot worse than expectation even.

Old and out dated but great location
The location was excellent and the staff were nice. But I will never ever compromise on my room again. It was so outdated and old. I couldn't get a good night's sleep because j kept worrying about cockroaches and bugs. I expect it in old places like this.
