Wonderful view. Perfectly comfortable,warm and well equipped studio. Vreni was helpful showing us how to use the communal laundry facilities.

I worried about the payment not going through booking.com and was relieved the booking was as it should be and that Vreni is Indeed a real person.🤔 Now I am reassured I will be recommending this apartment to friend's.

Lovely space and not far from the train station plus a lovely touch with a welcome bottle of wine, Toblerone and sweets on arrival.

The only thing missing for us, and it wouldn't stop us from staying again but it would be great to have a ski boot dryer.

I would add a microwave oven, some more hooks in the bathroom. For international travelers the pillows might be too soft, so I would put at least pne rigid pillow. I didn’t like to have to think about taking the bed sheets off before departure because travelers might no have the time. Also, on the same note, I would like to have recycling bins on the balcony and the landlord brings them to the recycling facility.

It was a great apartment with everything you need. Our Australian dollar doesn't go very far in switzerland, so we were able to save money by cooking in the kitchen. The TV is a smart TV, so when the thunderstorms hit, we were able to stream prime from my aussie account while watching the rain and lightning across the valley. Everything you need is walking distance. There is an umbrella available for use and an iron and ironing board. The complementary Toblerone and botttled water with the matterhorn shaped into the base of the bottle was also a pleasant touch.

So far, I haven't found a pillow I like in any swiss accommodation. The pillows pancake flat after 20 minutes and offer no support, even when folded in half. The laundry room can not be used whenever you want. You need to get the landlord to swipe an electronic key to start operation, and you have to put your name down to reserve time. It felt awkard asking the landlord to do this for us at 9pm for a wash and 10pm for the dryer. The landlord was happy to do this for us, but I felt a little uncomfortable given the late hour. Also, you are required to pay for the apartment via bank transfer to confirm the booking. As Australian accounts can not transfer easily to IBAN accounts, I had to physically go into my bank to arrange a transfer. It cost $30 for my bank to process the transfer, and i had to complete a two page security questionnaire to show this wasn't a scam. When the transfer went through, the landlord said that we were short 12CHF, so it looks like the swiss bank also took out fees. Also, be aware there is no microwave, so choose food appropriately.

Excellent location and really great staff. Especially appreciated the lockers for our snowboarding gear on the base level.
