The beds are very comfortable and the bathroom has eveyetjine one needs. Grown Alchemist products are amazing to use and the location is just perfect. Thanks everyone for an unforgettable stay.

    The location is fantastic and it's one of the cheaper places in Zürich (not that it's 'cheap', but 'cheapER'). It's a 2* so obviously not incredible but the room was clean and had basic amenities. The location is the best point, it's worth it just for this. Extremely close to all the travel links if you have a Zürich card!
