A Comfortable Stay in Geneva with a Few Downsides
I stayed at this hostel in Geneva for two nights, and overall, it was a positive experience. The room was clean, and the price included a simple but good buffet breakfast, as well as a free public transport pass that you can start using from the moment you arrive at the airport until the end of your stay—definitely a nice perk.
The location is excellent—very close to the main train station and the FlixBus stop, which was super convenient for me. The hostel also offers plenty of common areas where you can study, relax, or hang out before heading out or winding down at night.
One thing to note: towels are not included in the price. You can rent one for 13 CHF (Swiss Francs)—10 CHF is a refundable deposit and 3 CHF is the rental fee. If you’ve forgotten anything, like toothpaste or earplugs, you can purchase it at the hostel, which is helpful.
That said, there were a couple of downsides. The hostel doesn’t seem to enforce a quiet time, and during my stay, a school group was making noise on my floor around midnight and even again at 3 AM. I believe it would really help if a quiet time policy—say from 9 PM to 6 or 7 AM—were implemented and clearly communicated during check-in and when booking online. Also, the Wi-Fi was a bit too slow for my needs.
Despite these issues, I had a good stay and would still consider returning if I ever visit Geneva again.
