Great location. You had to enter the restaurant to check in and to enter after that, we had to go through a back alley. Breakfast was included, it was fine. Beds were not comfortable. But location made it worth it.

Affordable and clean
It was a bit of a walk from the train station, but not too bad as long as it's not raining. Room was clean and decent. The breakfast was continental. Buy an electrical adapter as soon as possible. What we brought from the U.S. was not compatible. Buy your Swiss travel pass at the train station upon arrival or online.

Zurich
Absolutely great location. No doubt. Walkable distance anywhere, city transportation around the corner.
Noisy street. Windows seal the sound outside very well, but then there is no fresh air.
Breakfasts could be richer and they did not vary during the stay. Staff refused to service any drinks without ordering a steak....
Next time it will be different place.

The staff was good. The hotel is in middle of Zurich old town which we already knew but what we didn’t know was we will have to smell weed whole night from the shops in the street. We couldn’t close the windows and switch on the ac because of small room and AC right above our heads. Breakfast was okay with not many options. It’s walkable to most places though

Just ok, worked for one night.
This was our final hotel after 8 days in Switzerland. When looking for the hotel you’re looking for a restaurant as the hotel doesn’t have a traditional lobby. It has an elevator up to the 4th floor and the room had AC. To say the bathroom is small is an understatement, check out the picture. The breakfast was just ok, and didn’t start until 7:30. The hotel is in a good location, and less than a 10 minute walk to the main train station.

Wonderful place to stay
Wonderful little gem of a place. Had everything we needed in our comfortable and clean room. It’s in the heart of old town but the insulated windows and a/c kept the late night noise out. Fabulous location for walking to everything. Breakfast was a great layout of hot and cold treats…just what we needed to start the day exploring.

Very friendly staff greeted me upon arrival and checked me in to my clean and comfortable room. Located in the heart of Old Town above a restaurant and down a cobblestone walk, this is a great option for a walkable stay (close to Kunsthaus and theatres). Breakfast was good, and the room was perfect for me as a solo traveler. Thank you!

Room was as shown in pictures. Clean, no frills, great for an overnight stay. Convenient location and lots of dining options in the area. From Zurich airport take #10 tram to Central and walk 5 mins. Cobblestones streets so just be aware of that. Old town sites just a stones throw across the street by the river. I'd stay here again for short stay. Breakfast options were good. So close to Zurich HB (10 mins)
