I can’t say enough positive things about Eliane’s apartment. First, Elaine is super, super communicative. She responded to every question I had very quickly, and made checking in a breeze (even providing me with a map from the train station to their home - about a 5-7 min walk, so convenient!). As the description states, it’s a hike up to the house (equivalent to quite a few flights of stairs), so be prepared for that. Upon arrival, Elaine’s husband, Francois greeted me and gave me a tour of the place. They live on the ground floor of the home and he mentioned if I needed anything I could simply knock and let them know. This was a huge plus for me - a single female traveler. He also asked what time I wake up because he sometimes plays piano in the mornings... so lovely! The apartment is just perfect: very clean, the balcony is AMAZING, and you can pretty much walk to all places in Montreux. Just a few minutes down the stairs to the beautiful lakeside and about a 10-15 min walk to the casino. Elaine also provided a bus pass and “half fare” pass for the trains which you can use to take up to the mountains. Anyway, I highly recommend this apartment and would love to stay there again.
