Very Good

Very nice room. AC was great. Not sure if all rooms are like this but our room seemed very new like it had been redone recently. The location was perfect, right in the middle of everything in Lucerne. We needed to do laundry and they have brand new machines that worked great.
Perfect location in The Old Town. Convenient self check-in and phone room key. High tech laundry room via app was a plus I was not expecting. Highly recommend ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Liked: Property conditions & facilities
The location is excellent, however the property can be maintained better. Our room was so dusty, we had to wash all utensils before using them. The towel warmer didn't work and the AC barely cooled the room, we slept with windows open. This is a hostel and that's how it is set up.
Pro: Good facilities. Comfortable.
Con: Too many staircases (even within same floor). Not completely soundproof. Not all rooms are labeled with room numbers. A bit of distance from Luzern Train Station.
Located in the center of the Lucern city hub. Very convenient amd close to the bus stop and the Lucern Train Station. The room was clean and the kitchen has all the amenities except a microwave oven. The luggage locker is very useful for us. But it would be better if there is a lock on the door which can be opened by the residents only.
Staying at the Lubo was so fun. Felt homey with spacious rooms and kitchen amenities. The location was perfect for us with the ability to walk almost everywhere we went.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
Aside from the great location, aesthetics and initial interaction with the staff, this hotel was a very bad experience.
The main issue is the obnoxiously loud machinery noise every few minutes (including overnight) from a generator or something else in the hotel. I think the hotel knows this, as they even include ear plugs in the bathroom. It is a very low pitched noise and also comes at random times which means we did not get much sleep during our stay. The walls are also very thin and can hear most of the surrounding rooms.
The room itself is quite clean and a fridge was a bonus. However, the kitchen stovetop kettle and pot were rusty so we had to get our hot water from the community room.
This hotel is in the perfect location! It was a comfortable space and we really loved having the room key on our phones. We would highly recommend staying here!
