Very Good
All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travelers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
We three stayed in a triple room which consists of a double bed and a single overhead bunk. The toilet is a small room with no lock and the door doesn't cover the entire opening. The shower is super small and opens right into the side of the double bed. There is no counter space at the sink and neither are there hardly any counters or hooks to hang your things in such a small area. If you chose to skip the clean you will literally not get ANY service in the room- including fresh towels, in return you can get a beverage of your choice from the fridge.
The hotel is easily accessible from the airport on the 10 Train, and continuing onto Zurich HB. We chose budget hotel to save a buck but it was definitely not worth the small space nor the inconvenient sleeping quarters.

Room was ok for just a night layover. Hotel staff was not friendly, not helpful either.
Clean, warm quiet room with comfortable beds (double + single bunk).
Friendly staff who spoke multiple languages including English. Highly recommend.
Only reason not 5⭐️ is because the shower leaked into the room. So extra towels were needed to mop up the water.
The room was small but clean and perfect for a stay before our flight out in the morning. Easy check in and was quiet. Room had the ability to get nice and dark. Since we had a long flight we wanted to stretch our legs before and did opt to walk the 25 minutes to the airport with the areas awesome sidewalks so that is a doable option if you’re interested in that type of thing.

Great access to ZRH airport if you have an early flight. We had a rental car which was accommodated with a 20 franc per day fee and an easily accessible and secure parking building connected to the hotel. Elevators from the parking building takes you directly to the front desk or somewhere in the hotel.
Staff was very helpfull and spoke english. Our room had a broken AC unit and abroken toilet light bulb. and we were swiftly moved to a room with working AC. They explained that the AC only cooled the room up to a certain temperature (23C or something like that) and we had to open the window if we wanted it to be cooler. Overall decent for a short stay for 3 people with luggage.
Great location only 2 stops on the tram, very clean room, nice hotel overall. Even though our room was at the end of the runway there was very little noise.

We booked a bunk bed room since there were three of us. But we all ended up sleeping on the bottom double bed. It was way too hard to go down from the top bed. Also, even for a budget hotel, why did the bathroom door had to be frosted glass? We had to hang towels on the door since you could see the person using the shower.. NAKED! LOL I would never stay in this hotel again. You can never argue about it being a budget hotel since I've stayed at other BUDGET HOTELS, but better than this one. It ruined our stay in Switzerland. It was also WAY TOO WARM in the room!
