Pros +
- What a wonderful place to stay! We were greeted with a warm smile and a handshake to everyone in our group. Our two rooms were thoughtfully rearranged so that they were next to each other. There were too many extras to even mention; nightlight in the bathroom, robe and slippers, umbrella in the closet, refrigerator, microwave, and accessories, etc. and when we were checking out, the whole staff/family came and said goodbye. I love these people!
- Fair pricing relative to other properties in Zurich, friendly and helpful host, very clean and convenient location near the tram line that went downtown, and easy access to the airport via tram and train..
- The location was excellent for exploring, with interesting sites reachable by foot and being very near the main tramline to the old city. The price was very good and the room was spotless and nicely appointed.
Cons -
- There is absolutely nothing I can think of to offer as a negative critique. Only I wish we had stayed here sooner.
- We had to take our luggage up 2 flights of curving stairs. Also, the only bedding was a heavy comforter which was too warm. (But we found this to be true most places we stayed.) The sink was not by the toilet but across the room.
- It can be a bit noisy. The area around the apartment is busy, and if there are people in an apartment over yours, you will probably hear their footsteps. Also, parking is very limited, so definitely reserve early if you need a space.

Location was perfect for our needs. The apartment was reasonably priced, spotlessly clean, and had all of the comforts of home. We were also able to park our car at a reasonable price for Zürich. The property is close to the lake, the botanical gardens, the Chinagarten, and a park. There are two grocery stores within walking distance, a drug store next door, several good nearby restaurants, and a couple of great bakeries very close. The tram stops just outside. We enjoyed the proprietors, who were very friendly, attentive, helpful, and professional. I would book again.

Friendly and professional staff. Great location. Clean and well appointed Ted room.
A very pleasant and charming family hotel. The owner made everything possible to provide us with the best service, and always with a smile and a desire to help and assist in any way. The apartment was clean, tidy and equipped with everything needed for a stay. The location is excellent, both in terms of proximity to the city center and lake, public transportation and proximity to a supermarket and a great bakery to start the day. We will definitely recommend it warmly to all our friends and sure to stay again on our next trip
The hotel was 15 minute walk so close to downtown and transit was steps away. Apartment was very clean and well-appointed. Staff were eager and helpful.
Being close to Main Street, there was some traffic noise during the late evening.
the owner has thought of everything! there is a robe and slippers for you, there is soap and lotion, there is a tiny fridge and a microwave, along with a simple set of kitchen goods (cutting board, dish towel, dish soap, cutlery, cup, mug, corkscrew) and even a USB cord and a power adapter in case anything has been forgotten. they are so kind and the location is perfect! the room is small but that was what I had expected -- I had not expected it to be so thoughtfully designed and set up for me! the shower was also hot and powerful, bathroom clean, and they held my heavy bag for me while I explored the following day.
The room was clean and offered anything I needed and the owners are lovely and very kind and made my stay very enjoyable. I can very much recommend it to anyone plus you have the tram station right in front of the door almost which is very convenient
Cleanliness is impeccable as well as the customer service and the easiness to get your key.Also, the hotel is super convenient as it is next to the lake and next to the tram.Price is unbeatable.
I was in the economy room and you can really hear the tram.
ApartHotel is very clean. Staff is very friendly. Location is great. There are many restaurants in the area, also the lake is 2 min walking distance. We learned how to use the bus and it is 10 min from the central station. There is also a train station within 7 min walking distance.
-Very clean-The location is excellent, with a tram stop right next to it, and a 5-minute walk takes you to the lakeside.-The owners are very kind, polite, and helpful.-It can be safely recommended
The location was at the right place, close to city centre; and despite the rooms being smaller they had every little facility; like iron box, umbrellas, toiletries, towels, cutlery and almost every thing…which pretty much made up for the space; the family too was very accommodative; looks like every small detail of guests was thought about!
Maybe couple of hooks or rods to hang towels/napkins could be provided
Excellent location right by the bus stop. Away from the busy city center but within walking distance of everything. The family that greeted us is lovely and made us feel like home right away. I can tell they really love their property and their guests!
Only one thing- and it’s an American thing- the A/C is a very small unit in the main area and doesn’t cool the rooms off.
Extremely nice updated modern bathroom, very nice room, extremely clean. Train stop literally right out the door. Amazing bakery across the street. The lake is just down the street, great location. Owners are so nice. Worked great for us. Would highly recommend
The room was super clean, it had all the facilities and was really comfy and nice. I asked if I could leave my luggage so I don't have to carry it around town until check-in, and the host said I could check-in earlier. The host greeted me and was approachable and professional. Stayed for only one night, wish I could stay more.
Everything was great
Clean, located next to a tram that takes you anywhere. The host is amazing!
It’s located near the lake, very convenient for buying groceries and dinning out. the rooms are extremely clean and tidy, the landlord is a very nice lady., really considerable and helpful
If the aircon in living room can be fine tuned, it’s quite noisy if turned on, but it won’t be a problem if you don’t use it
Centrally located by tram stop to get in and out of old town easily!
Step staircase makes carrying luggage up and down difficult!
Very well maintained for such a small family hotel. Comfortable although its renovation is a bit old.
The shower cubicle is transparent and in the corner of the room, well it’s shown in the picture without ambiguity, it can be inconvenient for who wants privacy.
