everything is good

very good house, very good person! 屋同相一樣，整潔企理 屋主非常好人，主動聯繫，提供當地資料，天氣等... 位置距火車站約10分鐘路程，不算近但容易找，出車站大街直行到教堂左轉過橋後第二條街右轉直去不遠就到，我推行李行亦ok~ 最後十分建議到街口的運動店租單車慢遊整個策馬特，50CHF左右，帶PASSPORT去比店員copy就ok，租/還車都方便簡單

静かで清潔です

両親と私達娘夫婦で宿泊しました。ツェルマットの中心街からは少し離れているためとても静かです。部屋も清潔で必要な物も一通り揃っていますので、3泊4日間特に不便は感じませんでした。玄関を出ると正面にマッターホルンが見えるのと、夜天窓から星空を眺められたのが印象的でした。

Great little chalet close to the lifts

We had a great experience from check-in to check-out. We arrived late, but the room was unlocked and keys waiting for us, so the check-in couldn't have been easier. Anita contacted us to pay and she came to us with a credit card machine at a time that worked best for us. The chalet was just a short 10 minute, easy walk, to the gondola and a 5 minute walk from downtown which was just what we wanted. It was the perfect size for a group of friends, a small family of 4-5 or a couple. The kitchenette was perfectly stocked and the chalet had everything we needed. The bed is a little hard, but overall we slept great and felt right at home. I will definitely recommend this place to friends.

Chalet Abacus Zermatt

Idéalement placé au centre de Zermatt. Tout confort, disposant de tout l'équipement nécessaire. Agréable terrasse avec vue sur le Cervin. Propriétaires à l'écoute du bien être de leurs locataires. Propreté générale parfaite. Vivement recommandé

Joli appartement, mais sejour tres petit et canapé pas confortable. Bien dans l'ensemble, très bien situé. Par contre, odeur très désagréable lorsque nous sommes arrivés, on avait l'impression que les occupants d'avant n'avaient pas du tout aéré.
