Kate and Ruth were excellent hosts. The apartment was precisely as advertised and the communication before and during our stay was both clear and practical.
We stayed during the first few days of the Montreux jazz festival and the apartment was perfectly located for our purposes, being close to the lake and the festival venues.
The apartment was clean, professionally presented and well equipped - it had everything required for our stay.
The views from the apartment are as shown in the photos and we enjoyed sitting on the balcony taking in the beautiful surroundings.
Whilst close to the train tracks, the windows are incredible at blocking outside noise - when closed we couldn’t hear a thing. We happened to stay during a European heat wave when temperatures in Montreux exceeded 34 degrees centigrade and whilst we kept the windows open during the day to cool the apartment we had to close them at night so as to not be woken up by the noise of the trains... this resulted in some stuffy nights. The hosts provided fans, which was greatly appreciated, but it was a pity that keeping the windows open was not an option.
The secure underground parking is a big plus.
All in all, Kate and Ruth have a fabulous apartment and we enjoyed our stay very much. They were excellent hosts.
It’s hard to comment on the value proposition (since, owing to the jazz festival, we stayed during probably the most expensive few days of the year) but overall we had no problems justifying the price given the quality of the apartment and its central location. We would certainly stay there again and would recommend that other do so also.
