I just spent a week in Zürich and very much enjoyed my stay at Sandra's house. Be sure to read the entire description Sandra wrote for what guests should expect. I did and it was exactly as I thought it would be. No surprises. If you want fancy, go to a hotel. Do not go here and then complain. That is unfair because Sandra is honest and describes everything accurately. If you can live more modestly to save money in an expensive city, then this is a great place. Sandra's little notes are a big help to understand everything you need to know. The areas are clean and I was comfortable there. The location is fantastic! Maybe a five minute downhill walk and you are right at the train stop. 10 minutes and you're at the main station to take you anywhere you want to go. Super easy! I had a refrigerator, microwave, electric tea pot and everything I needed to eat or drink something. What makes this stay special is that you almost feel a part of a Swiss family. Since you share some spaces, we encountered each other occasionally and that was nice to chat for a few moments. I even got to visit over a meal one night. Sandra and her family are very friendly and gracious, yet also give you space and privacy too. Seeing a little plate of red grapes from the garden every day always made me smile! So sweet! And if you happen to be an animal (especially cats) lover, you will absolutely melt when you meet Hans! What an affectionate cat, with the loudest purr I've ever heard! I wanted to take him home with me! :) I recommend staying with Sandra for a unique experience. If I ever return to Zürich again, I will check if her place is available.
