The facility and service was great, but they allow young kids and young teens to stay at the facility and made the whole experience significantly worse with noise and running around the collidors late into the night

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The location and overall condition were good but they could use more showers and bathrooms. Additionally, the breakfast is somewhat limited but is adequate. I was going to have dinner there one night but there were literally about 100 teenagers for an event and the chaperones had them start lining up for dinner at the same time as I was entering so I took a pass.

This was a wonderful place to stay if you are a solo traveler! It has clean rooms, a big free breakfast, and many of the best places in Geneva are within walking distance. The front desk staff are also friendly and very helpful!

Stay was average. The showers don’t have any kind of soap or shower gel in them, which is strange for a hostel. You also have to pay a deposit for a towel of 13 francs and you get 10 back on check out.
