I was thoroughly impressed by the apartment’s exceptional location...! Perfectly situated, offering both convenience and a sense of calm away from the bustle. The interior was tastefully designed, immaculately clean, and thoughtfully equipped with everything one might need for a comfortable stay. The atmosphere felt warm and welcoming, making it easy to settle in immediately. Every detail, from the quality of the furnishings to the smooth check-in, reflected a high standard of care and professionalism. A truly pleasant experience. I would not hesitate to return. Thank you!!

Doris is a wonderful host and nothing was too much trouble. The whole of the property, including the top floor we stayed in, was immaculately clean. Our top floor room was spacious and very comfortable. The breakfast was fantastic and really set us up for the day. And Doris is happy to work breakfast at whatever time you want. We were even made a cup of tea brought up to our room after a long day. It was very clear that Doris wants to make sure everyone has a lovely stay in her home

The services were even better than I had imagined: everything was very clean, very efficient and I was provided with all the things that I needed. The location was ideal, some minutes away walking distance from the cental train station as well as from a public transport stop for the city center. The staff was extremely polite with me and amazingly helpful to all the requests of mine. I would totally recommend it and stay there again!

This was a very clean, decent hotel and for a pretty good price by Swiss standards. The room was spotless and the bathroom seemed newly renovated with a powerful, warm shower. The location was a 15min walk from old town and around 25 from the sbb which was fine for me but there are trams nearby if you don't fancy it.
