Great little place to stay if you want to be close to the train station. Barbot himself is friendly, but quiet and discreet, no problem sharing a space with him. He was extremely helpful with getting us our laundry sorted when we arrived, and he always replied quickly to any messages. His space is spotlessly clean.
There are four flights of stairs to climb as it says in the listing. These are wide steps, no problem carrying suitcases, but it is quite a climb.
It can be quite noisy, for example traffic in the street below, and there are lots of restaurants with outdoor seating and bars on the street also. I wore earplugs both nights or I couldn’t get to sleep, but my husband is not so fussy and fell asleep fine. Something to be aware of if you are a light sleeper.
Overall, a perfect stop if you are not in Geneva for long and want to be central to the Jet D’Eau harbour area and the train station.
