Was a perfect stay!
Gisela and Oliver are the most gracious and warm hosts. They both greeted me on arrival, made me feel welcomed, and in the end were able to quickly make arrangements for me to turn the keys in early. Needing a long term place to stay for the summer, their apartment seemed to be just what I needed...it was and then some.
The large space is made comfortable with their eclectic furnishings, generous bath, well equipped kitchen, excellent wifi, and large terrace. The terrace is east facing making for warm sunny breakfasts, but shaded evening dinners. With vintage tables and seating, some happy plants, and large sliding glass doors from the terrace into the apartment, the outdoors came in. But this place would be perfect for a visit any time of year.
Conveniently located very near a tram stop, it is easy via three trams to get anywhere in the city. As well, two train stations are very close; one within walking distance and the other two stops away. From the Enge station you can easily get to the main station, or use one of two trains to explore cities along the western edge of Lake Zurich. And Oliver lent me his bike which made for seeing the city in a different way.
There are some great restaurants in the neighborhood, but if you prefer to stay in and cook in their nice kitchen, there is a large grocer in walking distance in a nearby shopping plaza (which also had many other shops for necessities.)
The images and description certainly are accurate, but it was the hospitality, care and attention of Gisela and Oliver that made for such a wonderful stay.
Thank you both!!!!!
