We had good overall impression about the apartment. There were few things that we liked and disliked about this apartment. To begin with this old style Swiss apartment is located in the core of old Zurich. Location is truly marvelous. It took us literally five to fifteen minutes of walking to any important place in the city centre. Moreover, the apartment is surrounded by lively narrow streets filled with idly staggering tourists and locals who wander around or enjoy delicious food in adjacent cafés. The apartment has everything that is necessary for a week vacation in Zurich. This includes one bedroom with romantic touch all around, nice kitchen with small dining table and clean bathroom with nice scent in it. Another nice addition was the rooftop where you can enjoy evening sun with a cup of tea.
Although we enjoyed our stay in that apartment we have noticed few things that you need to keep in mind.
First and foremost, this is the old building. Having said that you need to bear with squeaky floors around apartment. It is literally impossible to move silently. Additional annoying aspect was that if anybody was walking up the stairs you could hear that in the bedroom which was in opposite end of the apartment. Second, when we just moved in we found bits of dust around apartment so instead of unpacking we spent an hour or so cleaning the apartment. The last thing was that there was no warm water in the bathroom (Please note there was warm water in the shower).
Third issue was lack of space where we could put our clothing. Well, it is not so much of a problem but I would prefer to see my clothing in the wardrobe rather than piled up on the chair in the corner.
Despite the fact that there were few minor issues the owner Nuria was very helpful and nice. Due to cleaning problem we received some money back, which is fair in our opinion. After everything was sorted out Nuria told us that this was a mistake and usually this sort of stuff doesn’t happen.
Overall impression is very good. I would recommend this apartment to anybody. I would say the apartment is a bit overpriced considering all the problems we encountered. However we decided that we paid for the location, which justified additional cost.
