Nice apartment close to the lake.

A comfortable stay in a good area, right by the station and 25 minutes into Zurich. Breakfast available if needed but there is a local cafe and supermarket. We were in a 2 bed studio which could have benefited from a shower curtain and a lamp in main bedroom, minor things but would make a difference. Also 2 sets of steep stairs to take suitaces up so worth checking if this would be an issue for you.

The apartments is very good and cosy it was very clean and comfortable, the only But is the entrance to the apartment it is at the back the stairs very old and not convenient and we felt a a little apprehensive because there was a table on the back road and people smoking and drinking and talking loudly. Apart from that everything else was very good.

The reason I am giving this 4 stars (when normally it would have been 3) is because we booked it for the price, knowing to set our expectations reasonably low. Indeed, it was a good amount of space for the price. However - staff were incredibly rude, check-in was tricky, and the navigating the nearby train station was difficult because there were no elevators. People actually live within the same building, so you need to realize that you are a tourist within their actual housing. I would not book this again, but I feel that for groups needing more beds, the value is still good compared to other nearby options.

Spacious room and access to kitchen facilities. Very handy to transport- buses, trains and ferry. Great cafe and food store nearby. Minimally furnished and only one towel for 4 days. Bedding smelt of tobacco smoke and not sure how clean the bedlinen was especially duvet and pillow. No response to my messages.

This room was gorgeous. The details made us feel special. The book nook, reading area, chocolates on the pillow and herbal teas were treats after a long travel day. The hotel is a short walk from Lake Zurich, which has a lot of dining options. Lake Zurich is gorgeous, utterly gorgeous. Notes: breakfast is offered for a fee on the weekends, but there is a cafe a very short walk away. You can park on the grounds for a small fee, but there is also public parking. Most places take credit cards

Beware, this place is not at all as described or as in the pictures! This is not a hotel or B&B directly on the lake. There is no reception and you have to call a random lady to check-in. This is an apartment with businesses within it (a massage parlour) and with random rooms rented out to travellers. Therefore, some people actually live here full time. It is also situated in a noisy neighborhood and constantly had cars and motorcycles racing by as well as people screaming early in the morning. We reserved 2 rooms 6 months in advance and upon our arrival only 1 room was mysteriously available. Two elderly members of our party were given the choice of a room in the attic during a heat wave or a small room in the massage parlour. These rooms were definitely not meant to be rented out. In the standard room that we did get, the amenities listed were not provided: the wifi was not working, there was no coffee machine and the kettle had old water from prior to our visit. There were also flies coming up from the drain pipes in the bathroom. We tried to reach out to the property manager but did not receive any response during our stay. We chose to stay one night regardless as it was too late to find anything else available last minute in the area. The only decent part was a friendly maid that hurried to try to get the rooms ready and a man that said he was “friends” with the property manager who helped us get our rooms.

Not what we expected

We booked to stay with House of Harmony in the Standard Studio Suite. The pictures of this suite are quite nice on the booking websites but this is not at all accurate to what we actually stayed in. We were placed in a completely different apartment that appeared to not have been cleaned (garbage lying around, dirty floors, old food in the fridge, etc.). Regardless, the stay was satisfactory for the price and we enjoyed Stafa - we were just slightly frustrated by how misleading the photos on the booking websites were.

Christine was not very welcoming. She was angry as we said we wanted breakfast but then changed our minds Room was much smaller then what expedia made it look like. Also did not get a view, was just overlooking cars. There were people sitting under our room talking for the whole night so did not go to sleep. Bathroom door handle was broken so could not lock Towels were not changed and we had to go and ask for them after a day excursion Found a hair in the bed - disgusting Window blinds were broken Windows were so small and no natural light in room Flush in the toilet was also broken Awkwardly shaped room -only suitable for one person not 2 people

Mi experiencia en este alojamiento ha sido, en general, decepcionante, no tanto por las instalaciones como por la falta de atención y servicio. Días antes de la llegada recibí un mensaje en alemán a través de la plataforma de reserva ofreciéndome desayuno. Respondí indicando que me interesaba para uno de los días, pero nunca obtuve respuesta. A mi llegada, no había nadie para recibirme. Aunque indicaban que habría atención a partir de las 16:00, llegué un poco antes y no encontré a nadie. Tuve que llamar varias veces por teléfono para que me indicaran cómo acceder, ya que las llaves estaban en un buzón común sin ningún tipo de control. Afortunadamente, otro huésped me ayudó en ese momento. Al día siguiente, al ducharme, comprobé que no había secador en la habitación. Llamé para solicitar uno y me indicaron que hasta las 16:00 no podían ayudarme porque no había personal. La única alternativa que me ofrecieron fue llamar a otra habitación para pedirlo a otro cliente, algo que considero poco adecuado. Finalmente, tuve que comprar yo misma un secador. Por último, el día de salida recibí otro mensaje en alemán indicándome la hora de check-out y que dejara las llaves en el mismo buzón. En resumen, creo que hay una falta importante de atención al cliente y de comunicación, además de detalles básicos que deberían estar cubiertos o gestionarse de forma más profesional.
