This was my first Air BnB experience, and unlike the ones I have read about, I didn't meet my host at all. I rather liked that, because we arrived very late in the evening, and wanted to spend every day exploring the city. So it was nice to feel like the place was truly ours.

The small studio flat is in an amazing location. A fairly short walk to the HauptBahnhof, it also has trolleys to other destinations passing in front, and a beautiful view of the river it overlooks. The neighbourhood it is in is absolutely perfect. It is next door to cafe Motta, a perfect place to have an afternoon coffee while watching the sun set over the river. And around the corner from cafe henrici, who serve the best coffee in town. All attractions are within walking distance. It really is great accommodation, and easily allowed us to go home and rest in the late afternoon before going out to dinner.

It looked freshly renovated (so very freshly that it smelled of paint. We slept with the windows open) with new appliances including a nespresso machine! You can't really hear the trolleys or the traffic from the 6th floor. You do hear all the church bells though!

There is free wifi in the flat, but I have to admit I used it very seldom given my 4G connection (thank you vodafone europe) was many times faster. I wouldn't recommend this to business travellers if they need to work.

Overall, it was a great place to stay, at a great price, and we really enjoyed the four days we spent in Zurich thanks to it. We would definitely stay again!
