HITrental Letzigrund - Apartments

..

..

- Well located flat. Troleybus stop just outside the building - takes you to city center in 5min. Super easy! - Note that your room can face either Northern side (perfect for summer as barely any sun heats up room + there is big tree in front of window which helped managing heat in hot summer days, however, you face street and car noise) OR Souther side (it is quiter BUT in summer might be hotter). Our room faced Northern side which for summer we found better as apartment does not have AC - only fans/ventilators. - our flat was on 3rd floor and very nicely situated, with seperate bedroom + combined kitchen & living room with a couch that can be made as an additional sleeping space. - fully equiped kitchen with spacious fridge, little coffee machine, pots and pans, cuttlery, etc. - laundry facilities in the basement. - the building has elevator, but the first 5-7 steps must be taken anyway before you reach the elevator! Keep that in mind if easy access is an important topic! - you can have your pet with you for an additional fee. I think it was around 150 per month or you can also have daily rate if you are not staying the whole month. Just text hotel.

- As we were staying for longer time, I would have loved to have a broom and mop to wash floors (the apartment had only vacuum cleaner). Floors get dirty really quickly. Might be dust from the street or ventilation... but i ended up buying my own mop that was used frequently. - if staying longer, need to proactively request new trash bags (hotel has dedicated ones). Can be a bit annoying. - make sure to take plug adapter for Switzerland if travelling from abroad. Electricity sockets are peculiar.

Easy check in and check out . Room was cleaned .

Location is bit far from the centre and there are not lot of shops .

The apartment was efficiently laid out and tidy. The appliances worked as advertised and had the necessary supplies to use them. Having a dishwasher was really helpful! There is plenty of closet space and room for storing luggage. We appreciated the floor fans, which made it comfortable at night. Although the apartment is located next to a railroad yard, it was quiet at night thanks to the blinds and thick windows. It is conveniently located close to bus stops and a train station, so getting around wasn't a problem. It's also not far from a Lidl and some small foreign restaurants if you want to try Indian food in Switzerland (delicious!). It fit our needs for a short stay before returning home.

We would have appreciated some basic kitchen supplies, such as salt, oil, etc. The bathroom is a little cramped, with limited room for toiletries. As noted, the apartment is next to railroad yard, so if a view is important to you, this may not be a good fit. The decor is also plain and it looks a little bare.
