Pros:

Κοντά στα μέσα και το κέντρο. Πολύ μεγάλο και άνετο δωμάτιο και τεράστιο κρεβάτι. Ευγενικό προσωπικό. Τέλεια θέα από το μπαλκόνι.

Pros:

Minicik bir odamız vardı ama o kadar merkeziydi ki tramvay önünden geçiyordu. Tren garı yakındı. Çocukla dar olması açısından zorladı ama biz sadece uyumak için konakladığımız için üstesinden geldik. Nehir manzaralı bir odaydı. Nostaljik bir otel. Kaldığım en eski binaydı sanırım ama keyifliydi.

A lovely stay in Geneva
Pros:

We were given the room which was spacious and nice, with a balcony and an absolute fantastic view of the river and mountains. It had two double beds, they were exceptionally comfortable. Everything was very clean and nice. There was everything you need in the room including a fridge and a kettle. There was a communal kitchen downstairs, but we didn’t use it. The location was great: less than 10 minutes walk from the lake and the central railway station. There were several grocery stores nearby.
I’d recommend getting food in store for breakfast rather than going to cafe. Since there’s a fridge in the room, you can get salmon, red caviar, butter and bread in the evening and have good sandwiches with tea in the morning with the wonderful view. It will help you save money as Geneva is quite expensive. However, what’s the most important , it will make your stay very special and memorable if you take time to admire the beautiful view with a cup of tea and sandwich from the balcony.
And if you want to try their traditional fondue, you should visit Buvette des Bains which is very close to Jet d'Eau de Genève - reasonable prices (27 CHF for fondue - you can share it for two persons) and good views of the lake.
I hope you will enjoy your stay in Geneva as we did.

Cons:

The soundproofing of the room could have been a bit better, but this is normal for an old historic building.
