Great location in old town area with easy access from bus or tram stops. Lots of great places to eat within easy walking distance. The staff is very friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. We had booked the last available room and although it wasn’t ideal for us it was clean and convenient for our one night stay.

Great location, Great service. Would return!

We stayed here for a 2 night break to Geneva for the Christmas markets. It was a fantastic location on the edge of the old town, and a street back from the main shopping thoroughfair so quiet most of the time. Excellent location for both the old town and the Christmas markets at the other side of the river (approx 15 min walk). Room itself was spacious and comfortable if in need of a little tlc (e.g. few patches of peeling paintwork on ceiling - but nothing affecting our stay) We were unlucky on the second night to be kept awake by guests in the room above who seemed to be moving furniture around at 1am, 3am and 5am (wooden flooring very noisy). Staff were all very helpful and welcoming and I would definitely stay here again.

Horrible place

Open door to see a toilet. Shower is at least a 12 inch step up-very dangerous. Tap in sink and shower not installed properly. Shower has mold. Tiny little bugs everywhere. Asked for quiet room and told there were earplugs in the room. Only good thing was location.

Nice location and staff, small place

The staff is very friendly and helpful, the location is very convenient, the place is clean. The only problem is comfort: very small place, the WC is in a separate room by itself (no hand wash), one needs to keep the door open to use it and close a separate hallway door to the main room for privacy.
