Quirky, value property in Zurich

This place is quirky. It’s above a corner cafe. The cafe has a nice atmosphere and the food was good. The beds were comfy and the room was nice and spacious for our family of four.

The shared bathroom situation was a little weird. The bathroom was clean but it was just strange having to share with hallway neighbors. We felt like we had to rush through our bathroom routines! We had a room that opened right onto the street. It was warm, so we had to have the windows and balcony doors open. The street noise was so loud. The Euros were happening during our stay and some fans decided to drive around and honk their horns all hours of the night making it difficult to sleep. It’s a very minimalist property, so it was fine for one night. The woman that checked us in was not very friendly. Being new to the country after a long day’s travel, I wish we had been greeted by a more friendly face. The woman working the cafe the next morning was much friendlier.

Great location, Great Staffs!

I like the location and that the shared bathroom is super clean! The Staffs were amazing and friendly. I love their restaurant/cafe downstairs. They have amazing food; salad and coffee! You can just walk around and you'll at the center of Zurich. You can also find a lot of diverse restaurants nearby plus the nightlife area is also just few blocks away.

Well since it's an old building , you hear if someone walks and the walls seems not so isolated.

Very friendly staff, nice rooms, comfortable beds.

The staff was really nice, the room was spacious, the location was fine, but not that close to the city center.

No air conditioning, only one fan for the entire 2-bed room.

Great breakfast. The cafe at the ground floor is really nice, and a good place to hang out. The location is quite good with a lot of restaurants, bars and coffee shops. There is also a nice park just outside the guesthouse. The staff is nice and willing to help, and the room is spacy and clean with a cute balcony.

The is no air conditioning in the room, and in summer it could get hot. There is no fridge. Though the location is good in terms of what can be found out side the guest-house, most of the point of interest in Zurich, are found near the old town, which is about 20 minutes walk, or a few minutes by public transportations.

A great quirky and unique guesthouse.

The size and decor of the room. The divided nature of the set up is great so you actually have limited sharing of facilities. The staff were excellent. The park across the street is gorgeous and we had a lovely meal not far from the guesthouse. We would definitely stay again.

Nice enough to remind for a future stay

The terrace outside and the bar below

The layout of the rooms is a little off given that these are appartements divided in rooms. I think my bathroom was once the kitchen :-)

A decent choice near the city center…

I very much liked the cleanliness and comfort of my room. I also appreciated the fact that they changed my sheets every day. (Since there is no AC, people may swear badly.) The city center is only 12-15 min walk from the hotel and it’s in a very safe neighborhood!

Please start offering FREE BREAKFAST! Also, there should be a separate front desk person rather than having the restaurant servers to take care of the guests. (Although they do an awesome job, I still think there is a need for an official front desk staff.) And finally, please consider getting the shared bathrooms cleaned twice a day. (Toward the evening, they may no longer in a quite good shape.)

Overall, we would stay here again, but would request another room that had curtains/shades.

The room was in a funky old building above a cafe, which was fun. It was convenient to public transportation and local shopping (groceries, etc.). The room was clean and beds were comfy. The bathroom was remodeled and fairly large. Not a lot of amenities or towels, however.

Unfortunately, we felt very uncomfortable during our stay in the room. Although the bathroom had large, sunny windows, they were incompletely frosted and overlooked a small inner courtyard surrounded by multi-level apt. buildings. There were no shades or curtains on the windows and the frosted parts afforded little privacy. I could look out the glass shower and into the apts. across the courtyard, and assume the inhabitants could do the same. In fact, we observed an opposite neighbor as he watched us in the bathroom one evening, so we ended up hanging towels over the exposed window. Not sure if this was a 'funky' bathroom design of the remodel but it was disappointing.

Lovely, comfortable accommodation

Clean and well set up. Close to the tram stop. Not far from the main train station. Staff were friendly and helpful. Room was clean and the bed very comfortable

Sharing a bathroom, but I knew that I had to do that so not really a problem

Very good

The location was great. Very easy to take bus to the train station in 15 minutes. The bed were very comfortable and the room accommodates were nice. The balcony was fabulous and afforded a very nice few. It was a wonderful bonus to have a nice city park across the street. Sharing a bathroom with three other units was never a problem.

It was a nice place and good location.

The food was really good!! No complaints at all about that! The room was spacious and the bathroom was clean.

The bed we slept in felt as though the feet were higher than the head. It was almost as though the room was slightly slanted. But the sheets were clean. There was also a something sticky on the floor by the French doors and it was bringing ants into the room. The cleaner that was taking care of the bathroom seemed to clean it a little but it was still sticky so we had to avoid that area. Also, an alarm started going off in the middle of the night that kept us awake for a little bit. Thankfully someone was able to get it turned off.
