| Hostle accommodation was quite good! Good safe lockers - secure enouogh for all your possessions! Very near to lakeside. Transport was free, including to and from airport stations approx 30min by bus. The only thing was that there were a lot of thieves working in Geneva who easily pick pocket you if your not careful! But please do not let this put you off Geneva, it is a great place to see and visit! I enjoyed myself very much, Just be careful! The hostel is a very secure place for yourself and possessions! | ||
