6/10 Good

The hotel was nice and the breakfast very good. The cleanliness could be improved. Overall it was good, however the top bunk in the room had an accumulation of dust and hair in the cracks. There were also hairs on the towels. The hotel location was great, right off a busy tram line for easy commuting.

This is a clean facility, breakfast buffet is ok. However, it is clearly a budget option with limited amenities: only soap but no lotion in room, only one outlet (have to alternate charging of electronics), no coffee/tea in room, no safe.

Good price - value. It is simple, clean and no far from City center. Public transportation is right next to the hotel.

Very helpful staff, everything was very clean and everyone spoke very good English. Room layout was weird with the shower opening into the room, and there was a lack of power outlets. Decent value for money.

The electrical outlets are very far from the bed…. No very useful with a cpap machine! We good the Hotel and they said there was nothing they could do. Thankfully a member of the staff was kind enough to look for an extension cord for us.

Staff great help and very pleasant to us. Excellent services with the 24 concierge service , beverages and food available. Well provided area for heating up food if you need it. Very clean. Our room was small but ok for us as we had small amount of luggage ie small backpacks not large suitcases. May want to ask for a larger room if you have lots of luggage. All in all a great short stay. Also gorgeous view to alps on the side our room was on.

8/10 Very good

Very Inexpensive compared to surrounding hotels, but this is more like a hostel than a hotel. Every possible cost savings is evident, but it gets the job done. Just don’t expect it to compare to more expensive luxurious accommodations. The rooms were clean, safe, and their surrounding area was good. Beds were comfortable. Very utilitarian, but there isn’t a cheaper way to sleep three people in the area that I could find.

We did not venture out intonthe rain to much.. room was small for 2 people.. and there was no privacy for shower as it and toilet was pretty much in the room with ya.. I would not stay here again.. breakfast was decent tho.. and was cheapest around..

We’ve enjoyed our stay. I was afraid that there was no A/C after reading one of the reviews saying a/c would be nice but there is actually a/c in the building but it is centrally managed and you can’t adjust it in your room. Room temperature was very good and pleasant so no complaints.Room was very clean and hotel was quiet.

8/10 Very good

When I booked, I did not realize how far from city center this hotel is. Not hard to get to via frequent trains and city bus #9. And there is Bus #20 from city center that likely takes a long time to get to hotel area with lots of stops. The only restaurant reliably open and close is McDonald´s, though there are others in nearby shopping center. Okay breakfasts at hotel a bit pricey, but not as bad as in the Ibis Budget in Lima, Peru. They have no top sheet, only a comforter that is too heavy and hot in the summer. I took the inner part our and slept only under the cover. That was okay. This is a good place to stay if you are going to the adjacent Expo Center. I didn´t but I made it work.
