Friendly staff members, very clean place ”

The staff members are nice, friendly and helpful. The area is very clean; it is located 6-8 minutes walk to Winterthur station. The only thing is that my room faces to a factory, may be construction site, it’s bit noisy at early morning.

Clean, Staff, facilities

I have stayed a few times in Depot 195 Hostel already. It offers comfy beds and blankets, a well equipped kitchen and clean bathroom facilities. The staff is friendly and helpful. The location is well situated not far from the city center and the train station and the pub beneath the hostel serves good beer =) There is no other place for me to stay when I am in Winterthur!

clean, friendly, great location

I stayed at the hostel for a week, the location was perfect for me as my office was just on the other side of the road. Also very close to the trainstation and the old town. The staff was very helpful and friendly, rooms/bathrooms/kitchen were clean. Really good value for money, would definitely recommend it to anyone and will be back the next time! Also the bar that is beneath is a nice spot to grab an after work beer :)
