A flat with great potential but in urgent need of refurbishment and proper management!
We have spent 6 weeks in this Airbnb. This accommodation might be good for short term stays, to enjoy the terrace, but definitely not for long staying families as we had to spend a big amount of money to make it livable.
The flat was very dirty on arrival. The walls are in urgent need of painting, the sofa is so dirty that we had to buy covers to be able to use it. The terrace furniture is completely broken and there is no shade. Plugs are not working, lights are not working, there are no working bedside lights etc
There is NO window in one of the bedrooms and it is questionable if this is legal!
We had to buy kitchen equipment in order to be able to cook.
The washing machines are constantly busy with hundreds of towels been washed for the religious bath in the basement. One dryer doesn't work at all.
There is no information in the flat in regards to parking, garbage or general information in regards to Zūrich.
The TV remote was broken and we replaced it.
Communication with the host is extremely difficult as he refuses to talk in person.
We were not made aware of the construction outside the building. The massive construction started in 2019 and will only finish by 2021. It is extremely noisy and the building is shaking at times.
If we would have known, we would not have chosen this flat. After complaining we were offered free cancellation but refused as it was impossible to find alternative accommodation for a family.
We are hosts ourselves and would be embarrassed to rent a place like this.
