Liked: Hotel Alpha provides good, reliable budget accommodation in a nice area of Lucerne only 10 minutes walk from the station. The staff are always welcoming and helpful. Beds are very comfortable and facilities are always clean. Breakfast is good and the hotel is a good choice for any budget traveller.
Disliked: Nothing.

Liked: We had a great sized room with a sink and desk with two single beds pushes together to make a double, the breakfast was really good and the reception staff were incredible! They even allowed us to check in hours earlier! Wireless Internet is available for 1CHF per hour, and is available in all rooms.
Disliked: Only possible issue was the small number of showers and only one toilet per floor. It didn't bother us too much, but the hostel wasn't full when we were there.

Liked: Essentially a hotel, so nice clean rooms, but has some nice lounges so sort of has a bit more of a hostel-ish feel. Good breakfast available, you get an hour of free internet useage on a decent computer.
Disliked: Perhaps a bit expensive for what it is; you still have to share bathrooms.

Liked: This Hostel is very clean and the building is fairly new and well maintained. Its 12 mins walk to the train station. Just off the busy road. so its also quiet. Shared bathroom. It was clean and good. Like most of the other hostels i stayed in, the shower is a 3x3 room. I think thats the standard in europe.

Liked: staying at hotel alpha was a wonderful experience. I had booked a private single with shared bathroom. the room was spacious enough, had its own sink and drinking water. there are 2 toilets and 4 showers on each floor so tht dsn giv ne problem. the breakfast was good. had a variety of options to suit everyone. the hotel is located on a 10-15 min walk from the station and even though is not in a highly central location for luzern, the walk to the hotel is pleasant. housekeeping was also very efficient.
Disliked: the internet connection in my room was not available - the wi fi signal was extremely weak in my room. so i had to surf in the lobby. other than that there was no problem and i had a wonderful stay.
