Happy with the complimentary water, coffee and lollies. Nice and friendly reception. Great location. Close to SBB. Was close to the tram and some establishments which was great but there were some noise disturbance experienced from the transportation and people shouting during night time.

The location, if you are using the coach station for trips with Best of Switzerland or Grayline is excellent as it is just accross the road. Easy to walk to Zurich Old Town and the lake for boat trips, through the train staion and along Bahnhofstrasse. Clean hotel although a basic room it had everything I needed. Very comfortable.
