Liked: Cleanliness
The bedrooms were sweltering, and, for me personally, i found the mattress hard. An 11am check out time is too early especially when you can only store your luggage for a few hours. As a result instead of spending some more time in the city, i was at the airport far too early. Very limited selection of snacks and drinks available, not everyone wants to have to go to an outside shop.

Great hostel in Geneva. Walking distance to the water and the area you want to be. Included breakfast was basic (sandwichs, croissants, cereal, a couple fruits) but good.

All great! My only complaint was the noise and the fact that my bed was right next to the door, literally, my pillow was on the wall adjacent to the door. So that was annoying. Other than that, the facilities are great and the location is very convenient.

This was a wonderful place to stay if you are a solo traveler! It has clean rooms, a big free breakfast, and many of the best places in Geneva are within walking distance. The front desk staff are also friendly and very helpful!

Bien
Bien. Quand même bruyant avec plusieurs groupes scolaires ou nombreux. Excellent emplacement, déjeuner plus que satisfaisant. Salle de bain dans le dortoir, très pratique ! Toutefois.. douche très peu conviviale! Le jet ne se bouge pas et va directement dans la porte. Il faut être gymnaste pour réussir à recevoir de l’eau aux endroit souhaités.

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
I wanted to like the hostel, but it just got worse and worse until I had to leave early. It caters to school groups, which can mean long lines at breakfast and a lot of yelling and banging on doors because some of the students are very young. I also suspect the hostel sells any available beds each night at a discount to migrants and homeless people. But this is very late, so I had random people coming into the room at 2 and 4 am, turning the lights on and banging around. This happened three nights in a row, so I didn't sleep for three nights. Oh and on the last night before I left with the remnants of my sanity, I was bitten by bed bugs.

Worth the price, all things considered.
Helpful multilingual staff at the desk 24/7 was very useful as I had a delayed flight. Free breakfast was a good bonus with generous and reasonable timings. I also liked the personally issued lockers that you don't have to pay extra for unlike some other hostels. The communal areas in the hostel were clean and well looked after, and it's a nice neighbourhood too if you want to get some local food or even fast food. I could do with an extra pillow but overall it wasn't a bad stay. Convenient, relatively comfortable and cheap. Good stay!

Breakfast was convenient and a good start to the day. The bathrooms were clean and easily accessible. Lockers for storage were big. Rooms did not have easy way to regulate heat which caused overheating at night.
