    Location was amazing, easy to get to from train station, straight onto a regular bus service which stops outside and also goes onto the waterfalls. Really friendly check in, breakfast was decent. Really great environment

    The hostel is extremely clean and the staff is very helpful and friendly. It is quiet at night and it is about a 10-minute walk to the station. If you go to Zürich airport, this hostel is a good alternative to the Zürich hostels.
