Fabulous trip to Montreaux and Geneva. Hotel handy for the trips we booked.
Pros:

It was overlooking river and close to station, old town and shops.
We had a room with private bathroom located outside our room which was absolutely fine. Had tea/coffee, kettle, fridge. Only there one night but would definitely go back as it was reasonably priced for Geneva.
Staff helpful and we could leave bags after checking out before our evening flight.

Cons:

Didn’t have any complaints. Building is a bit dated but it’s cheap and cheerful. As long as it’s clean we are happy.

موقع متميز ،إطلالة رائع ، خدمات بسيطة ، الإنزعاج من ضوضاء بين الغرف أبرز سلبياته
Pros:

موقع مميز وإطلالة جميلة جداً والموظفين ودودين وخدومين باقي المرافق والخدمات جداً متميزة ، والتنظيف اليومي والعناية بالنظافة أهم ما يميز الفندق

Cons:

لم يكن هناك خدمة إفطار فالفندق ولكن الفندق قريب من كوفيات ومطاعم متميزة ، الفندق جدرانه غير عازلة للصوت ، الأدوار التي مطلة على النهر معرضة للإزعاج من قبل المارة والشارع ، الشرفة لمطلة أرضيتها رديئة غير نظيفة ،أبواب الدولاب للملابس غير قابلة للإغلاق مع مطالبة مراراً على معالجة الموضوع دون جدوى

Pros:

A comfortable place to stay with good access to sights and transport.
My room was quiet, easy to sleep and work .
Thought there was a fair bit of noise from the stairwell.
Great staff!
Access to the mini kitchen behind reception was a godsend as I was on a very tight budget
Fridge in the room helpful too.

This place is good value in very expensive Geneva. It was better value that any local hostel.

Cons:

The place is tired and could do with some attention.
Eg the shower head couldn’t be angled to allow me to shower properly. It had to be hand held.
There did not appear to be any ventilation for the bathroom
The room was quite small and access to hanging space in the wardrobe was tight and inconvenient with very limited space to hang clothes. The hanging rail was not secured and kept falling down.
Honestly, for the price it was great.
