You have the bus stop , grocery stop and some nice restraunts near by. ##### nishtha ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kwok Leung 6 Apr 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, communication It is overall quite a nice place to stay if traveling around Interlaken. The instruction is clear and friendly ##### Kwok Leung Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Brunna 9 Mar 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Absolutely amazing! We had an amazing stay! We were receptioned by Ursula, who showed us the apartment, how everything worked and we could get in touch with her if we needed anything. We were really surprised with the apartment! It is really big, has everyting you'll need during your stay and has also a great location. Would definetely recomend the stay! ##### Brunna Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2020 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Mahjabin 26 Apr 2024 Liked: Communication Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Very old interior, bathroom smells horrible, furniture condition is very poor. ##### Mahjabin Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Stacey 1 Oct 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication Hotel was good overall. Biggest downside is the traffic noise outside which was non stop. You need the windows open to cool the place down and it was just so loud so sleeping was not great. A fan would have been a nice option. Grocery right across the street and also extremely close to the bus stop, very handy!! Also a 1-2 minute walk to an amazing pier side restaurant - excellent option for sunset and cocktails! ##### Stacey ### 8/10 Good #### Colene 4 Nov 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, communication We loved the location. The place was difficult to find as the house number is very small. We would’ve enjoyed a top sheet and one large duvet instead of two small duvets. The bells all night though not in control of the property owners made for a not good sleep. The bed was very comfortable. We loved the kitchen with exception of the coffee maker and oven not operational. The shower had great hot water. ##### Colene ### 6/10 Okay #### Lisa 21 Jul 2023 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Amenities The location is amazing. The castle is visible (partially) from 2 of the windows. There is a great little cafe on the water a stone's throw away, gorgeous gardens and a walking path along the lake. The apartment itself is basic. If you are a big person, the bathroom and "kitchen" will not do. No extras at all. Bring your own soap, shampoo, tissues, coffee pods... Parking is best done up the road at the parking garage. Cost is about $13 USD for an overnight. ##### Lisa ### 2/10 Terrible #### Verified traveller 12 Aug 2024 Disliked: Cleanliness, room comfort, communication ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Susanne 30 Jun 2024 Disliked: Communication Schöne Gegend, nur ein paar Minuten zum See. ##### Susanne Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Zach 6 Nov 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication Great location, friendly people and all good size apartment with useful utilities.

The check in time was at 5pm which was way to late and the check out time was 10am which is very early compared to the check in time. The property was not maintained well, had water leaks and crooked floors in the bathroom, broken handle, broken window panes. Broken countertop in the kitchen, broken chair & table in the dining. Spider webs and dirt all around the house. No fan available when it was more than 80\* outside. Small stairs to take stuff up and down the house, everything was old and unmaintained. I got to the property early and asked if I could check in early and the owner replied after 2 hours and said it is not possible, and the care taker was still cleaning the apartment 1.5 hour past the check in time - so I got access to the property at 6:30pm. After complaining to Hotels.com, they reached out to the owner a few times but they wouldnt reply to compensate me for the delay. I sent them an email as well but no reply. So be cautious if you are booking here. ![Dirty drawers with food and dirt](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/B070BBADB137D128AE0BDCC5F8664D7424F513891694705365718.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Water damage in the bathroom and dirty smell](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/60563E1207DDAD0B29CF8D0B918D3A0B8E3D23331694705365219.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Spider webs and insects all around the house](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/7D4754EFAA78126C341295ECD8B86839F1CAFC811694705364560.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Water damage on the floor](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/DEEDC288BB1F07E7657794BF9002B36DB9E832191694705365722.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### keyur Stayed 4 nights in Sep 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### Brigitte 30 Jun 2023 Liked: Amenities, communication ##### Brigitte Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Olivier 19 Jun 2023 ##### Olivier Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verena 25 Mar 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication ##### Verena Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Wiebren 20 Jan 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication Vlotte communicatie met de verhuurder.
