Guest reviews
Exceptional
Beautiful, social place to relax and connect with other adventurous souls
Liked: Absolutely loved this place! Ray and his team were super welcoming, helpful, and addressed any concerns smoothly. The environment of the house was chill and social in the best way. It felt easy to connect with others, and was very comfortable and clean! The view from the house is beautiful, and I personally enjoyed the location being a bit out of town.
Disliked: Bathroom wait times were common, but was still manageable.
Liked: As I write this review, what comes to my mind is not an accommodation, but a place—a place with incredible views, a place I can completely relax, a place brings me joy, a place filled with love, a place welcomes me just as I am, a place I’ll never forget, a place I don’t want to leave. I’ve never been a nostalgic person, but this place will always have a piece of my heart.
Disliked: I’m just sad that I can’t stay here forever.
Liked: The only things I liked about my stay were the beautiful view from the living room and the convenient location, with easy access to the city.
Disliked: Unfortunately, the cleanliness was far below an acceptable standard. The area around my room, bathrooms, and hallways had a very strong and unpleasant smell. The sinks were often clogged, the floors looked dirty, and it was clear that these areas were not being thoroughly cleaned on a daily basis. The staff were okay and friendly enough, but they didn’t seem particularly efficient or proactive. From what I observed, most of their attention seemed to be on basic tasks such as welcoming guests and providing information, rather than actively maintaining and cleaning the property. I believe many of them were volunteers, which may explain the more relaxed approach, but even a backpacker hostel should maintain proper standards of cleanliness, organization, and responsibility for its guests. The biggest issue was definitely hygiene. Showering while dealing with unpleasant odors in the bathrooms and hallways was extremely uncomfortable. Better ventilation and, most importantly, much more serious attention to daily deep cleaning are really needed.
Liked: The nicest staff possible. The view from the living room is breathtaking.
Disliked: Could be cleaner.
Liked: Really enjoyed my stay, especially considering how expensive Luzern can be. The house was comfortable, the views were amazing, and the free public transport QR ticket was a great bonus with good connections to the city. I also visited Bürgenstock Spa, city and Pilatus, and the location worked very well. The host was friendly and communication was excellent. The only small downside was some noise from other guests at night.
Disliked: No Common area after 22:00 and can get too hot
