It was adequate for a short stay and very serene.
Pros:

A very good location with a bus stop right in front to connect you to the airport or anywhere else you are going within Geneva.

Cons:

There was an off smell from the carpet which I suspect may be from food spills from former guest or lack of ventilation. I would recommend diffusers and fresheners are placed in the rooms for better smell.

Sehr ruhig gelegen - Preis/Leistung stimmt für Genf
Pros:

Reichte für meine Zwecke, mehr auch nicht - sehr ruhige und schöne Lage. Da ich praktisch nie Frühstücke, sind meine Erwartungen nicht zu hoch - hat gereicht. Der Zugangscode zur Unterkunft wurde mir frühzeitig zugestellt, so dass das Check-in keine Probleme bereitete. Die Unterkunft ist in die Jahre gekommen und eine Auffrischung würde der Anlage gut tun (Kantine etc).

Non benissimo
Pros:

La struttura in sé non era male, e c'era la possibilità di lasciare la macchina nel parcheggio gratuito.

Cons:

La colazione era povera, il secondo giorno non c'erano i croissant e chiedendo al personale ci è stato risposto che non ce n'erano più, nonostante fossero le 8 di mattina, fino alle 9 ci sarebbe stato il tempo. Inoltre la pulizia non era buona, nel bagno c'erano diverse schifezze (roba marrone sul soffione della doccia, incrostazioni sul rubinetto, coperte extra con peli e polvere) e in generale la struttura della camera è piuttosto vecchia.

Pros:

Einfaches Zimmer mit WC + Dusche, sauber - gut
Für den Aufenthalt ohne weitere Bedürfnisse gut.
Frühstück einwandfrei
Sehr netter Empfang und Empfehlung bzw. Reservierung Restaurant in der Nähe

Cons:

Zufahrt im Ort etwas komplizert durch Bauarbeiten anfangs, langer Umweg im Ort, da wir erstmals hier waren.
Aber sonst okay.

Wholesome Swiss experience
Pros:

Amazing customer service, easy to get around from (based on where I was working). I was treated like family and welcomed with open arms !

Cons:

Very limited breakfast and no WiFi or service in my room which was below ground which was inconvenient as I had to take home a lot of work to conduct. For normal visitors this wouldn’t be an issue.
