Great room, fits basic needs
The hostel is a very short walk from the main train station in Cornavin. The solo bed rooms are for your basic needs; towels are included, which is a great added bonus (as many other hostels require you to rent out that). My only complaint with the room was that it had a rather strong smell of cigarette smoke; I reckon the staff tried to air out the room as my window was opened when I arrived. Otherwise, I had a great night’s stay in that hostel, and had a great 24 hours in Geneva.

Fonctionnel mais...
Emplacement de choix à côté de la gare de Genève. Mais des efforts sont à faire sur l'entretien des communs, notamment les sanitaires.
