- "This hostel is very close to the bus stop, the kitchen is very convenient to use. Across the street there is a supermarket. The hostel has a place to leave luggage. Also they offer breakfast but since there is a kitchen and a store close by I find it cheaper to use the facilities they offer The staff is very friendly" - "The receptionist was very helpful, the bus stop and supermarket very close which it is very convenient. " - "Bellpark hostel was friendly and clean. The common rooms is large and you can get to know other travelers or grab a table for yourself. Food in Switzerland can be expensive but Bellpark is right across from a discount supermarket. It was great to have access to a full kitchen to cook a meal (even if the stove is a little old). Bellpark was really easy to get to. From the main train station, I took the #1 bus, which runs about every 10 minutes. Bellpark has free luggage lockers so you can leave your bag after checking out. I was on a week-long course in Kriens and Bellpark hostel was the perfect place to stay. "
