The location is fantastic, just 2 blocks away from the tram and 3 stops away from the Zurich HB train station.
The building has a lift, so apart from the few step at the building entrance, no need to haul luggage up.
The room is small, but well equipped with stove, pots and pans, cutlery, kettle, microwave, refrigerator.
The bathroom is small and there is very little sink space, but there is a shelf on the wall and mirror box for you to put your toiletries.
The front desk closes at 6pm, and after hours check in was a little bit stressful, as I tried to call the after hours number and it was unreachable for 10 mins. The hotel had apparently previously sent the access code for the key box to my email, but as I had booked through Trip.com, the access code was sent to Trip.com and not me, and Trip.com did not forward me the access code prior to my arrival. Luckily, after 10 mins I tried to call again and someone finally picked up and I was able to get the access code.
Although my room was right next to the lift, it was pretty quiet and the soundproofing was good between the rooms. However, the soundproofing was terrible between the floors. When people upstairs were walking or pulling chairs, we could hear everything and sometimes it continued late into the night.
Overall, I would stay here again because the price was really good for what it was in the area. Also, front staff Ivory was very friendly and helpful.
