Simone's place is located in a building with apartments for rent. Our place was clean, looked very nice and spacious (beside the bathroom which was a bit small, but compatible with the photos and perfectly usable). The kitchen was well equipped with a nice place as a dining area, plus a sofa and a working spot.
The location is about 5 minutes walk from the train station (15 minutes to Zurich Main Station) and bus stops nearby. Two supermarkets are close by and a grocery store adjacent to the building. The place gave us a sense of security, as it was secured both by the key to the apartment itself as well as a separate key to the building entrance.
Simone was great and lovely, very nice and welcoming. She prepared some sweets on our pillows and on the dining table and it gave us a cozy feeling. Although she did not pick up the phone herself, she returned a call quickly through notice from her worker(s).
We would like to stress that Simone proved her reliability and responsiveness, when some of the apartment's equipment broke down. She attended the issue with great care and swiftness to the best of our desire, accompanied with a proper apology and compensation.
We believe that a host's credibility is best manifested when it is tested in practice, rather than remains a theory on paper. Thus, we are even more confident that whoever chooses Simone's place, will be in good hands.
