Given 2 coffee pods for free but any additional you would have to pay for so not ideal if staying more than one night

Good location, close to river/lake and also close to all tour pick-up points we booked Walking distance from Cornavin train station, about 5 min

Porter jerked my suitcase up small flight of stairs and broke the pull handle! Did not realize this til he was gone, and could not roll my suitcase for remainder of trip. Nespresso machine did not work well at all - and yes, I DO know how to use them. Would not puncture both sides of pod so only hot water came out, but capsule then could not be used. Additional pods $1.50!

We loved the location! Just 5 minutes from the bus and train stations, in a quiet neighborhood, and within walking distance of everywhere we wanted to go. It was the perfect spot for exploring the area while still enjoying a peaceful stay.

Right in the center of Geneva. Air conditioning works well. The staff is very responsive. If you need something, like an extra cup or glass just ask the lady at the reception.
