Staying at Kristyna's apartment was a once-in-a-lifetime experience (which I hope to be able to do again). Words are not enough to describe the location - waking up to the sound of cows grazing, lush green meadows, the funicular train running downhill, snow-clad mountains and clouds in the distance. the studio is small but immaculately clean and well equipped. Kristyna responds well to queries - we met her only on the first day of our visit (she was at work on the second day) and she was helpful with suggestions on sightseeing. She also provided us a fantastic home-made breakfast on the first day of our stay. Few things that other guests must note - 1. the studio is a steep climb from Les Avants station and there is no public transport - so travel light 2. If it rains (as it did when we were there), it becomes difficult to get around the town (we had to call a cab from Montreaux to take us to Montreaux station). 3. There is no grocery store in the town (just one restaurant near the station) - so please stock up on supplies before you head there. But seriously, this is something that you have to experience to understand how beautiful it is!
