We enjoyed our stay at Barbara's place. It was clean, spacious, and comfortable. Barbara had bread, jam, juice, coffee and beer waiting for us in the flat, so that we didn't have to worry about finding supplies for our first breakfast. Check in and check out were easy. Wifi was excellent.
For those of you concerned about getting to the flat without a car, let me say that it is certainly possible--and not that difficult. We spent 3 nights there with no car and managed quite well. You take a bus from the Vevey train station to the funicular (A 5-min ride on the 201 bus) and then take the funicular straight up to the last stop. From there it is a 10-minute flat-to-downhill walk to the apartment. The funicular departs every 20 minutes, so we never had to wait long--and it is timed perfectly to match the 201 bus route. Just buy your groceries or take-out food before you leave Vevey, and you won't have any problem with the hilltop location. Barbara even took us to the train station on the last day, which saved us an uphill walk back to the funicular with our luggage. We were very grateful for that!
On the negative side, though the views from the hilltop are gorgeous, as Barbara mentions in the listing there are no views from the flat itself. Also, the flat is on a road that can be rather busy during the morning and early evening hours. Even so, the traffic noise did not interrupt our sleep overnight--and our windows were open every night. Overall, the flat met our needs and was a great value.
