The first place we had booked was apparently double booked so they allowed us to pick another option from the places they hosted. This seemed like the best available of the bunch at the time.
TINY, the space is equivalent to a small hotel room. Bed is not the most comfortable but I guess that would be personal preference.
NOISY, the apt is located on a popular main street hence the noise levels. Since we were staying here when it was warm, we had to leave the windows open (as there is no AC though there is a fan) and the noise from outside is VERY loud. You can hear everything, from people talking, ambulances, the garbage being picked up at 3am, etc. The weekends are the worst as there are loud drunk people. Bring good earplugs.
The kitchenette has seen better days and could use an update. We went out to eat every day so we didn't have to use the kitchenette. It's probably great for warming up food as I really can't see cooking on it. There wasn't a clean sponge available to wash the dishes and the only sink you would be able to wash dishes in would be the bathroom sink. The power shuts off when you use the kettle in the power outlet strip in the kitchenette area. To resolve this issue, I moved the kettle to a different outlet in the room while we were there.
The apt does have a beautiful view & in a convenient location. It's right on the Limmat River and the view is absolutely gorgeous. Since it is a popular area, there are tons of restaurant & shop options and everything is within walk-able distance. The main train station is only about a 10-15 min walk.
We stayed here for a week. Since my husband and I are full time travelers, we also work from our Airbnbs and unfortunately this wasn't a good fit for us personally as we always try to stay away from the popular areas and enjoy the quieter neighborhoods. Though this place would be good for a brief short stay. Nonetheless, the hosts were easy to get in touch with and accommodated our earlier check-in request. Thank you. :)
