Diane

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Liked the fact that the local bus stop was right outside the apartment complex. Disliked the dirty stairs that led up to the apartment. Once inside, closed the door and the inside door handle fell to the floor. My husband was able to fix that. There were 2 glasses, different sizes, some cutlery but no forks, no bowls, no pots or pans. The shelf in the fridge would not stay in the runners, The bathroom door was badly banged up, the towel rack was hanging and unable to use. The bedroom door, meant as a sound barrier had a panel missing in the door. I took pictures and if there is a way I will attach them to this review!!!

Good budget option

Good budget option for the area in Zurich but there is some variability with the rooms. The top floor/attic unit is a bit strange but huge. On the third floor smaller but I find the layout better. Showers are pretty tight so keep that in mind if it bothers you. Also there is no elevator or front desk/luggage storage. All units have a pretty functional kitchen which is useful for an expensive city like Zurich. Location is good. A short walk to the old town (note it is uphill the way back) and quite close to ETH/USZ

Zurich fully equipped apartment hotel

If you are in decent shape, you can easily walk from the central Zurich train station- it is all uphill. Easy to get groceries across the street. On tramline which goes to airport or just use central train station to access airport. We had two great walks from our hotel. One down to Lake Zurich and another up into beautiful neighbourhood and hilltop park.

Dont expect hospitality from Apartment Swiss Star

Apartment Swiss Star's staff is not customer friendly. Seems they are more after money. Customer service is terrible. They are not fluent in English (only some knowledge). They try to avoid or neglect even your serious queries. They debited my credit card for more amount ($417.14 instead of $401.60) without telling me ever any reason. Do not expect hospitality from Apartment Swiss Star Staff. Be careful. Protect your Credit Card from them.

Terribile esperienza, l’unica nota positiva la vicinanza al tram. Stanza vecchia, sporca, senza riscaldamento e senza acqua calda sanitaria. Contattati il 31 notte (capodanno) perché non potevamo lavarci con l’ acqua calda, all’esterno c’erano gradi sotto zero, ci hanno preso in giro per tutta la giornata del 1 gennaio. Dicendo che il tecnico stava intervenendo per la mancanza d’acqua e di riscaldamento. Nessun tecnico si è mai presentato, ci hanno rovinato la vacanza e il capodanno. La notte del 31 dalle stanze vicine fino al mattino, feste con karaoke a volume altissimo nel corridoio, non potevamo né dormire né riscaldarci. Non soggiornate per nessuna ragione al mondo! Sono pessimi!

Perfect if you don’t plan to be in the room

The place was fine. It was budget friendly and close to the city center with a tram stop very close. If you’re looking for suggestions on Switzerland accommodation, a tram stop being close was great. The shower overflows so fast and the curtains are laying in the water. The bathroom is so small it’s hard to function, and the balcony has a huge puddle of water that smells bad. The balcony has one chair that you can sit on if you want to jump the puddle. We didn’t stay in the room much unless we were sleeping.

Slitent men rent.

Fin beliggenhet med trikk rett utenfor. Rent. Rommet er slitent. Men har det basale for å spise enkel mat. Mange trapper og ingen heis. Godt bakeri i nærheten. Dusjen er under et skråtak, så om du er lang må du sitte på knærne. En god del støy fra gaten.
