The front desk was very helpful, unfortunately I brought the wrong plug in they let me borrow one. The train stations were only 10 min walk which wasn’t bad. From the old town it was only 15 mins away by train.

The common area is great, big, and good to meet people. Breakfast is really good. The room has a nice separate part for lookers and a sink. Bathroom/showers have good size. Everything very clean.

Breakfast was a good variety for people from different cultures. Bathrooms were very clean and spacious, as were the beds; nice to have sinks outside the room for those who have to wake up early. Top bunks had outlets and shelves.

“not a hostel”
- • Leisure trip

- • Stayed 3 nights

At arrival the “hostel” seemed like a school, checkin was smooth but when we saw the “hostel” it was a pure dissappointment. Basically a big school with no personality, no people and around 1000 beds. Room, very basic you have ti make the bed and strip it yourself. Breakfast was ok nothing special no fill up. To sum it up, wouldn’t call it a hostel and for what you get it is not worth it we would rather have stayed at a hotel or airbnb
Nice staff, lockers

Not much.
Very clean and welcoming. Apparently it is far from the city according to locals, but it's only a 20 minute tram/bus ride.

Majority of the staff were not nice no friendly approach at all. Be prepare to be charged with taxes when you do the check in in the reception even tho you have paid everything online.They charge you 2 Francs per towel plus 10 Franc deposit the they would give you back when you return the towel.I have paid deposit for towel before but I have never been charged almost 2 euros for it plus deposit.
I like the miso soup and thebreakfast in general, it was clean and conditions were good.

nothing really
just off the motorway & one of the main zurich junctions - how ever quiet - & 4km from city center at 20' with tram n°7 (5' wlak from hostel to get it, tockets at front desk: 8,8chf for 24h, grand). well developed structure, & very good lay-out: room door opens onto a small with wash basins on one side & lockers on the other (yes it requires 2chf to work, however you don't pay but only use the coin to activate the functioning system; once finished you get your coin back - very efficient system), then another door leads to the sleeping quarters. Ample rooms, each bed has a light, a socket & a shelf. good breakfast with a variety of food.
