Residence Inn By Marriott Geneva City Nations
The staff were very pleasant. The breakfast was high-quality and the coffee was very tasty. It was also nice that a complimentary public transport pass was provided. I didn’t need it, but it was nice that the room had all the necessary kitchen utensils.

The air conditioner is broken. We could not turn on the room temperature. Room amenities are few like no slippers and not enough lighting and the telephone is broken too. We could not contact the reception desk.
