    Property is accessible by public transport and is in a nice quiet area which is soothing. Very spacious rooms, good wifi connectivity and a lovely host to help you. A lot of information is already provided as we check in which can be used to go around Geneva with ease. Would go back if the property is available on my future trips.

    The hosts were awesome. Very attentive and willing to help out. The place was sparkling clean, and beautiful. Tastefully decorated. View of the alps from the living room and bedroom windows were an unexpected added bonus. Just amazing. Lovely place, great hosts and spectacular location. Thank you Greg and Flavio. You welcomed me to your home, and took great care of me. I appreciate. See you next time.

    Great 1 night stay at Geneva Hostel, with breakfast included. Facilities were always clean when i used in the evening and morning. Room/bed was clean. First time I've stayed in a hostel in 20 years and albeit this was a great hostel with female dorm separate and very reasonably priced for a night in centre of Geneva, im not sure shared sleeping space with random people is something for me.
