Incredibly friendly staff, not a good location
I have stayed in hostels all over the world so I am making this comparison based off experience.
The PROS:
The staff was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and helpful.
The rooms themselves were very clean.
The area is very close to the train station and close to bars and restaurants that are open late.
The CONS:
The location is very bad. It is loud at all hours so you have to expect that if you want to have the window open (otherwise it gets very hot).
Very limited number of bathrooms and not clean. There were MANY people staying here and there were not enough bathrooms to accommodate how many people were staying here.
The bars in the area and the area of town seem to encourage people to get drunk and there was very nearly a fight while we were trying to have dinner.

It is cheap hostel and you can walk from the main station in Zurich. If you are tourists who prefer to a cheap hostel, I totally recommend it. The cleanness and the safety around there are not so bad.

Filthy triple high bunks
This place is dirty with triple high bunks, 3-4 bunks per room. Also saw couples bunks. Check-in"desk" was an in use kitchen. Located in un safe prostitute zone.
I originallybooked a single room. They bait and switched me into a triple bunk room. I declined and left. Of course they had a no refund policy, I think a scam.
Hotels.com wasnt much help getting my money back afterwards. I think the property needs to clarify its listing or be removed.
I had to submit a reversal of paymentthroughmy ctedit card, thank that got my money back.
Careful here, you've been warned.

Better sleep in the Park.!
It is in a dirty and ugly part of Zürich.
You like crack and prostitutes? You are in the right place.

Prostitutes and junkies
Had to dodge prostitutes and climb over junkies leaning on the entrance to get inside the hostel. The staff screwed up the bed reservations, so multiple people had the same bed and it became chaos in the middle of the night.

Not worth the money
It’s not worth the money. The area of this hostel is around dumpster, graffiti, strange people hanging around. Don’t feel safe. Room doesn’t have AC. The bathroom is dirty. Staffs are nice and helpful. Checked out 2 nights and changed to another hotel.

Misleading listing. This is a bed in a 8 bedder dorm room. I've booked double bed, expecting a private room (as with my other bookings), only to find its not the case. I'm given a double bed bunk bed.
Location is right in the middle of a rowdy drinking street, so expect lots of loud musics past midnight.
Staff attitude is terrible as well.
This is definitely the WORST experience I've had in all my stays of all sort!

Worst Hostel Ever
This hostel can be construed as the most subpar accommodation I have experienced throughout my lifetime. The receptionist demonstrated discourteous behavior and failed to attend to the task of changing the beddings. In addition, the overall cleanliness of the premises was found to be highly unsatisfactory. I am aware of the premises being a hostel, and although I acknowledge not having expended a significant amount of funds towards it, I have encountered more cost-effective accommodations in Zurich and Geneva, which surpassed its quality by a considerable margin. I strongly advise against staying at this hostel, as it is not a recommendation I would extend to others.
