I stayed in the Schiffbau for 2 weeks in February and it was the perfect choice. The apartment is really impressive: spacious, complex (3 levels), full of crazy appliances and little things that are meant to simplify one's life and transform one's stay into a rare treat. The neighborhood is insane: at first it looks very industrial, but then I discovered that is all art, and restaurants and weird parks, and clubs, all corky and all friendly and welcoming, booming of life and events. You can't get bored in Hardbrucke even if you want to.

I must say a few words about Lucas as well: he is an amazing host. First of all he left me a fridge full of food and drinks which was an incredibly nice gesture, especially because the next day was a Sunday when all the shops in Zurich are closed. Moreover, I was lucky to be in Zurich for the Swiss Music Awards 2012 which also happened in Schiffbau and Lucas was very kind to get me a few tickets for the after-party. He organized a mid-stay cleaning for me and was always there if I had any questions or troubles. Thank you, Lucas! You made me really love Zurich.
