Travel Baby-bed from Chicco:
To unpack and pack we suggest looking for a youtube video that shows how. ProTip: It's important to open all the sides first before folding out the middle. The sides won't lock if the middle is pushed down first.

Amazing stay with a gorgeous view of the Swiss countryside

We really enjoyed staying at this property with wonderful hosts. The scenery was gorgeous, as well as having a quiet surrounding area. Several simple connections to Zürich HB (buses & S-Bahn) as well as to other areas. Excellent communications with kind hosts. Would stay here again!

Wonderful 10 night Stay

My wife and I stayed here for 10 nights, great safe, quiet location and super close to train stop, literally 5 min walk. Nice grocery store walking distance to house was a huge bonus. Communication with Mads (host) was outstanding. Highly recommend!

Wonderful Stay

Mads and Linn were great! The apartment was perfect - nicely renovated, clean and well equipped. The best part was the terrace. We had dinners every night overlooking the village below, and the hills on the other side of the valley. The train station is literally a minute walk away (yet we never heard the trains). Zurich by train was easy and fast. We will definitely return!

Cute and cosy

Nice for one couple, but the second bedroom in tiny, and right at the front door. Used to be the lounge room im guessing. Dragging our luggage up the flights of stairs after a long haul flight was very demanding. A pickup service wouldve made all the difference. The balcony of the bedrooms was very nice and inviting. Shower and toilet amenities very nice also. Andy, Marnie, Mike and Jennifer

First, the location is perfect to visit the city; close to the train station which takes you everywhere pretty much. The apartment is super clean and very efficient, it’s has everything you need and more! The owner is extremely helpful and responded to my inquiries within minutes.
