This place was horrible. Trust the other bad reviews and do not stay here. It was dirty (there was hair all over the hostel room’s floor, there was mold in the shower, the shower was horrible, when I went to turn on the shower a swarm of flies flew into the room out of the drain (the shower is in the room), and it was stifling hot with no ventilation. I had a two night reservation but had to leave after the first night because it was so bad and gross and unclean.

Great hostel. The staff is very friendly and made me feel welcome. Hostel location is convenient for walking into the city or taking the bus. It’s also very close to the beach. Continental breakfast is decent and the view from the breakfast area is great. The actual room is basic and a bit small and wifi only worked for me in the common area by the reception. For the price, it’s a great option to explore the beautiful town of Annecy and I would definitely stay there again.

This place was absolutely gorgeous, with its views over lake Annecy. It was nice and quiet, as most people were out hiking and biking during the day. The kitchen was clean, and I loved sitting out on the deck. There was a full breakfast, which had lots of great options and I was very happy with.The only bummers I had was that the shower had very little water pressure and didn’t stay on for very long. Also, there isn’t much for transit in that area, so be prepared to walk or bike. For the price, it was very worth it and I was happy. I would recommend it for others coming to stay.

Loved this place, except wasn’t allowed to use restaurant (because of a large group) and this hadn’t been obvious, when booking.

Agradable para un par de días

El albergue tiene un enclave muy bonito. Está situado como en la parte alta de Annecy, alejado del centro pero con unas vistas magníficas del lago y te puedes adentrar en el bosque y dar paseos o hacer deporte. El problema es que si vas con maletas subir hasta allí es difícil y tienes que coger la línea 27 de Semnoz. La bajada es muy agradable y en 15 minutos estás en el centro. Sirven un desayuno delicioso. muy variado y de calidad. Las habitaciones son algo pequeñas. Las instalaciones son viejas. La wifi no funciona bien en todo el establecimiento. La limpieza regular. En cuanto al precio de una cama o litera en habitación compartida, viendo los precios de los hoteles en Annecy, diremos que es asequible.

Horrible! The accommodation is located on a hill somewhere with limited connectivity. Long, steep walk to the accommodation so be prepared. The facilities sucked. No WiFi in the rooms, no Air conditioning in 34 degrees Celsius weather.

Chambre convenable, un peu petite, douche aussi. Manque au niveau de la fenêtre, un film protecteur pour éviter que les gens voyent à travers de dehors surtout au rez de chaussé. Une chambre qui est très bien pour une ou 2 nuits.
