Location is far to center and price is really expensive for a hostel. However staff is nice, hostel has free breakfast and transportation card for the guests. Corridors and common areas could be noisy especially when they host group of kids in the weekends.Beds and pillows are not very comfortable. Showers and toilets are clean

Le seul point "négatif" est le.manque de volets, les gros rideaux ne suffisent pas et, dans ma chambre, le fait que la fenêtre soit si haute que je ne pouvais pas la fermer et j'ai dû déranger un employé pour ça.... Pour tout le reste, super!!! Si je reviens à Lausanne, je sais où dormir!!!
