I'm a student from the US, and spent 9 weeks this summer researching at the University of Zurich. I felt incredibly safe and comfortable in the apartment, and it really felt like home for me. The bottom floor of the building is the guest apartment space, with two bedrooms and a kitchen, bathroom, and living/dining room. It was perfect for two people (the other room was occupied by another student while I was there), and didn't feel cramped at all. Bernadette is an exceptionally kind host, she always made me feel welcome and we often had lovely chats throughout the summer. The location is great, especially as a student, as it's right near the ETH Honggerberg campus, and a short bus ride from UZH Irchel. Only about 15 minutes by tram to the city center, and within 5 minutes walking distance from three grocery stores. I am so happy with my stay and really miss the sunlight shining through grapevine leaves in my window. A great place if you want to be out of the center, and close to swimming by the river!!
