The staff were helpful and provided me with an adapter for the Swiss power outlets.. I appreciated that. Breakfast offered a variety of choices including fruit, meats, cheese, and even a self-serve egg cooker.

The hotel had very helpful staff. They offered available luggage storage. The location is excellent. It is right next to the main train station and the Cornavin tram station.
The bed was very uncomfortable. I could hear a lot of noise from the hallway. Light entered the room through the door.

The location was perfect. It was an easy walk from the central train station. I found an adapter to use for my Switzerland power outlets because the front desk provided one. Breakfast included a variety of fruits, meats, cheeses, and breads, as well as a self-serve boiled egg cooker. The staff were friendly. They extended our stay for an extra day.
The bathroom felt small. It could use a bit of updating.
