Nice huge hostel, not so far from the city center by plublic transportation (15-20min). Unfortunally they charge for the table football and other fun stuffs! There is a bar (I really like bar inside hostels!), and the breakfast is ok! The hostel is really expensive, but this is Zurich!

The bathroom and the showers were very clean. The breakfast was also included in the price and it was actually good breakfast. The location was very accessible by tram, except you have to walk up a hill after you get off the tram. There were many things to do at the hostel, like play ping pong, pool, watch tv, etc. The staff were very friendly and very helpful.

Helpful friendly staff, always available, always friendly yet professional. Good dorms - especially the fact that there is''ante-room' for washing and storing property. Very useful if anyone came in later than others, or, like me, had to leave early and didn't want to disturb others. Food good value. All in all, I would recommend this hostel wholeheartedly.

clean, well-equipped. comfy beds. well-lit...the breakfast is AMAZING. the rooms have lockers that you put a deposit into and get back. each bed has a little "desk" nailed to the wall with a light so you dont disturb others.

Staff was extremely nice and helpful. Beds were reasonable (to sleep in), so was room itself with lockers within room. Room was clean. Lots of facilities within hostel, which made it one of the best HI hostels I stayed in.

Coming from a 22 year recent college grad...It's like staying at a upscale dorm. Everything is in good condition, new, and clean...the place is huge so everyone really keeps to themselves which kind of sucks to be honest but what do you expect in such a big place? I also didn't like how the hostel nickle and dimes you for everything there...(6 bucks for 1 hour of internet) (3 bucks for 52 minutes of wifi) (5 bucks for each load of wash and 5 bucks for each load of drying) The Bartender Alex is a great guy and the beers are pretty reasonable. Based on what other people said, I was expecting a crappy stay but the stay was actually pretty enjoyable. (clean rooms, bathrooms, good water pressure, pretty good location, a nice room with decent beds, and a pretty good price for Switzerland standards) Overall I would rate this a B/B+ for a big hostel.

No atmosphere, it is not what a hostel suppose to be. This is more like a commercial hotel were you have to pay to much money (36 euro) for a shared room. Plus the offer a meal in the evening for 15 euro which they think is cheap. I would'nt want to stay there anymore. You are better off in a tent.

Very clean, easy to get to (15 min. from main Zurich train station) thanks to Zurich's great public transit system. The tram tickets are slightly expensive though (about $3 each way), and so is the hostel itself...but then again, so is everything in Zurich.

the best thing about this property was that it was very secure and clean, however there was no atmosphere with an almost prison like feel to it and the no mixed dorms was a pain. it was expensive, but zurich is! the breakfast buffet was really good, which made it better value. the only thing in the local area is a supermarket.
