Hostel Airport Oberglatt

2.0 star property
2.6 out of 10, (7)
"Very disappointed, being the fact that it is a Hostel and not a Hotel, I was expecting for the 5 days of accommodation to at least find it clean but it was not like that.. I only stayed 2 days because I couldn't stand more the smell was disgusting, the bed linen smelled terribly like old people.. . They didn't even offer us towels to take a bath., No WiFi we talked about getting money for the remaining days... but it seems they don't want this. Please don't make our mistake! "

4.0 star property
8.4 out of 10, Very Good, (245)
"Great location as it was a 7-min walk to the HB. Nice lounge area at the lobby and good laundry facilities on L2. A few dining options nearby. Apartment is small with dining area and the sofa bed made for the kids. We had a double in the space next to the sofa and requested more pillows as well.
