“Alexander Guesthouse's staff goes above and beyond, exemplified by their swift room preparation for a family with an infant; this level of attentiveness is truly remarkable. The rooms are clean and well-maintained, though the absence of a fridge and air conditioning might pose a challenge during warmer days, especially for families needing to store baby food. Overall, this guesthouse offers a welcoming and accommodating experience in Zurich's Old Town.”
