The host were very communicative for all our needs. Quick 20 minute walk to downtown Zurich, so prefect location. It was spacious and the shower had great pressure and hot water. For a quick stay on a budget, it’s excellent.

Ok, but very hot and only one small fan for multiple rooms. Tiny bathroom, but nice and clean. Quite loud area, especially as we had to have the windows open to cool down the place.

Great base for our Zurich stay

This apartment was perfect for our stay in Zurich. The communication with the host was excellent and the apartment was exactly as represented in a nice, quiet area of the city.

Good location

Overall it is a good location for short stay. The bathroom was cramped with odd toilet and shower configuration. The place was hot in the summer even with all the windows opened. The host was fast with communication an we didn’t have any problem with checking-in.

Great host, great stay!

Check in process was very clear and simple to follow! Location was close by to bus and tram stops so it was just a 5 min walk. The unit had all the amenities provided (toiletry, towels, cookware, etc.) The check out process was just as easy too. We had no issues and thank you for the hospitality!

Clean and Adequate

We stayed for a few nights over the holidays. The apartment was very clean, just tight on space. The kitchen had everything we needed especially while Zurich was shut down for Christmas. Where it wasn't ideal was that the bathroom is very cramped and the TV didn’t work. Definitely not suitable for people with mobility challenges. All-in-all it's fine as long as you are expecting no frills.

Older Unit but Clean and Simple

Unit is older but clean. Floors in unit creak quite a bit when walking around, as well as thin walls/floors being able to hear every step from occupants in unit above. Convenient to get to central Zürich even being located more toward the edge of the city. Bought a “Blue Zone” parking pass for the day, however unable to find any spots even remotely close to the building, or throughout the city central areas. Ended up spending 50 CHF to park in parking lot when exploring. Recommend NOT buying the Blue Zone pass.

A little out of the way.

This apartment was bright and appeared to be freshly painted and equipped with everything needed. It was on the second floor though with no elevator. This was something I failed to notice before booking - that’s on me. It listed a washer and dryer which it did have. However, it was in a very dingy, dank basement and shared with a restaurant and the rest of the building. As mentioned in the listing the bathroom is a little odd and extremely small. It was also very noisy every night, usually til about 11:00 pm. It was also a little far from the city center, so we spent a lot on taxis.

I usually don’t put bad rates on a stay but at this time I need to do it, I traveled with my brother and his family and for them the experience was not good at all. The apartment was ok and clean, the bathroom was weir but clean. now the entrance of the building is horrible and scary, you have to entrance thru the side of the building where the garbage dumpsters are located, we arrived late at night and to get the key to enter the apartment you need to find the lock box that is really at the side of dumpster, once you open the door of the building there is a horrible cigarettes’ smell and the first impression of the stairs were not good at all, once you open the door the fist thing you see is a door that takes you to a dark lower level, not knowing is someone is going to jump on you, my sister in law and niece did not want to stay but since we arrived late we have no choice. Please you need to be more clear about this on the advertisement of the apartment
