Very conveniently located, close to train station, shopping and the old town - easily walkable. Our room was very small - two people kept bumping into each other. Beds were comfortable.

Perfect location.

Perfect location for walking around Zurich. Very close to the train station also. The only negative was the room was too hot (no A/C) and the windows did not open on the first floor. Not a good combination if you are going through the change (if you know what I mean)!
