Hotel Zak Schaffhausen

This place was one of the cheapest we could find because we were only staying for 7 hours to just sleep. There's a bar underneath and thankfully we stayed on a Sunday, so it wasn't loud, but I can imagine it gets loud. This is not a hotel, it's a hostel. It's fine and very close to the train station. Room had some space and shared bathroom wasn't far. The stairwell is small and tight. There is an elevator though. |The room smelled so much like smoke that my clothes did for days. |If you need just a place to sleep it's fine, but this place isn't the best. |Also, the hours listed don't reflect the hours they're open. Thankfully people were at the bar, but we got in after 10 and nobody was answering the bell as we rang it.

Just mins from train station n Migros Supermarket where you can find all your necessities. Check in reception is inside the mini bar, feel funny but the ladies there so friendly. The rooms are very clean and comfort but if you book a studio room, it comes with fully equipped kichen n a big fridge. Spacioys with dinning table n bathrooms/toilets attach.

Definitely attracts a very strange crowd of people. The room seemed kinda dirty and its very noisy from the bar downstairs which wasnt that big of a deal, but I wouldnt recommend it if you really need to sleep. There is no smoking sign but everyone smokes everywhere in the building. |Location is great!

Super easy check in, close to the train station, and good price considering the other hotels. That said, the studio really lacks cleaning since several surfaces contained huge amounts of dust. One of the beds was broken and it's not a nice decoration. It looks like they put whatever they had access to. The kitchen doesn't have all the necessary stuff and many - basic- things are not provided (for example a glove for the oven or mugs).

Good location, rooms are good enough with TV and wifi. There is only one shared bathroom on floor though and the breakfast was quite disappointing for the price.

We had gotten a studio room as we were a family of 4. It had a nice kitchen, bedroom, washroom and living area. Now to north Americans this may sound like every 3 star hotel and up. However, I have been to hotels in Paris and 1 other hotel in swiss and this was just amazing period.

The "hotel" is actually a hotstell, for backpackers. So it was quite the disappointment for us when we got there. In the description it said: double bed(160-180) + futon. We got 3 bunkbeds and we could have ended up with up to 3 roomies without it saying so in the description.. also shared bathroom and a lot of noice from the street. Very disappointing!! And the mens bathroom was 2 floors down from the room. Very old room. Spiderwebs in the ceiling which was kinda gross when I was sleeping in the top bunk. No aircondition either, so very hot when it was 25°C out. Won't be going back. Probably perfect for backpackers, but expencive. We expected more for the price we were paying. But the staff that welcomed us was very nice.

I found the proprietor here very kind and the place overall friendly- ready to say hello on our way in and ask if we needed anything. They held our bags after checkout until we were ready to go get the train. Our family of 4 stayed comfortably and explored the old city, castle, and outdoor cafes. The room was comfortable enough & on the 1st floor is a dorm-style room for sharing, with lockers. Breakfast available for 11 Euros. Outdoor cafe tables, though the street they sit on is narrow with occasional slow traffic. The bar downstairs was ready with a cool afternoon beer. There is a (small) elevator. Train station is very close.
