The accommodation is very old. The toilet won’t flush, and there’s a musty smell of rats.

Chept

So dirty The accommodation is not clean at all. Many electrical appliances are broken, the water heater barely works, and the heater doesn’t function. Staying here is very uncomfortable.

It was great living here

the location was good and amenities provided was sufficient

the cleanliness was not the best and the bunk beds were squeaky. Insects were flying around.

4.0 / 10.0

Dirty and lacking

Good location and somewhat spacious.

Rather disappointed with the accomodation. Paid a decent price and wasn’t expecting the world but expected some bare necessities. The bathroom which is on the ground level has no ventilation and is growing black mould on the roof. It is also prone to flooding with the shower curtain not offering much of a barrier. Second level has the kitchen/living. One of the dining chairs is broken but has clearly been staged to look like it’s not. It fell apart when sat on making it rather dangerous. The kitchen is lacking a lot of necessities like; a sink plug, a sharp knife to cut, a functioning freezer (was frozen over). There was a lot of mismatched utensils and cooking pots, the rangehood was also sparking plus the kitchen was rather dirty. The stairs up to the bedroom have no railing and are very steep. I wouldn’t feel comfortable staying with children or elderly people. Some of the power points don’t work and the others spark and zap when plugged into. Although this is not in the owners control the accomodation is situated next to a church which the bell rings regularly from 6am-10pm roughly. The accom is advertised as river views. This is not the case. The is close by though and is a good location otherwise. It’s about 10min walk from interlaken west train station and close to food and amenities.

Please be careful. Not suitable/ dangerous for some

Convenient location, but NOT actually on Riverside

1. The property is not on the Riverside as suggested. 2. Stairs in property are dangerous. (Definitely not suitable for elderly or young children, anyone with mobility issues) 3. Broken chair (that was mentioned in previous reviews!) My 80 year old mother fell due to broken chair and really hurt herself. 4. Floor not clean at all. 5. Broken banister on already dangerous stairs. 6. Furniture not comfortable at all. 7. Bathroom and shower on ground floor= living area first floor. (No avoiding dangerous stairs) 7. No sharp knives in kitchen, so difficult to prepare our meals. (This is a minor complaint compared to the serious issues we had, but worth noting for other potential customers. I strongly suggest that elderly people or families with young children do NOT stay here. If your a young couple or group of friends location is convenient, but no nice views from apartment.

Hugely disappointing, safety risk apartment and owner does not care or bother about his paying guest

Nothing

We booked the above apartment from 6th May to 8th May. Very, very disappointed and annoyed. On the day of arrival, locals told us the address was incorrect. We spent a lot of time trying to find the apartment that was not in Interlaken as stated in the website. Neither was there a sign board to say it was the river holiday apartment. The code given was incorrect. I called, texted and emailed the owner but no response (I got a response on the day I returned back to UK). Eventually a guy came who said he had previously lived in the apartment. He put in the correct code and removed the apartment key to let us in. There was no information about anything in the apartment. Despite the phone calls and texts, the owner did not contact us in anyway. I dread to think what would have happened to us in the pouring rain if the guy who had previously lived there had not turned up. The lights for the landing from the bedroom to the kitchen was not working. I had family members who were seniors and they found it difficult to walk safely without the lights. It was a safety risk. We were informed there would be Wifi, however the Password given did not allow us to connect with the Wifi. There was no heating throughout our stay. It was cold especially for my senior family members. The handle of the front door was loose and each time we opened the door we had to push it back in place. The chair in the dining room was wobbly and the arm of the chair was broken but there was no warning about this given anywhere. One of my senior family members could have fallen and injured themselves. The next night there was only lights in the bedrooms. The whole downstairs was in darkness. We had a tough time throughout the night and could not wait to vacate the apartment. This is not the type of accommodation we expected. It totally spoiled our holiday. The owner did not bother nor have any consideration for his paying guest.

Worst experience!!! Absolutely it is not value for our money

check in process was smooth.

rest of all I can say its a worst experience.. We got voltage issue in the Apartment and tried to reach the concerned team via WhatsApp, on Call and via Booking.com chat but so far they didn't replied or answered to our call. there are so many nearby places please prefer there. it was a worst experience I ever had. Not at all recommending to anyone. Please think before you proceed with this Apartment.

Not a very good one, just glad to be out of the place

none

concerned about safety issue, the third floor doesn’t have side rails to hold on to when going downstairs, the window in the bedroom is broken. I was trying to lock it when the whole window on the right side came off and almost fell on me. The bathroom is all the way on the first floor with a lot of stairs to go . down to. Furnitures are very old and looks dirty. If I have known I probably would pay more to stay in a decent accommodation. Location is not great either.

Disappointing

Wifi wasnt working on arrival. Took a few days for the host to fix it. There was no mention that the apartment is located behind a church - this was annoying as the church bells ring during the night.

6.3 / 10.0

Pleasant

Location was great,walking distance to shop and train station(west) . Bed was comfortable and large kitchen/dining/lounge room.

I had misunderstood amount of bedrooms on website :I forgot it had stated 2 ,but the picture had what appeared like 3( but it was two photos of the same bedroom). We were travelling with another couple so they had to go elsewhere as it was only 1 queen and a set of double bunks 😢. The shower/ toilet quite small and on ground level. No handrails on stairs and stairs leading to bedroom are all the same colour and you had to be very careful when going up or down as they were slippery with socks on and narrow and steep.it had 3 levels so if you wanted to go to toilet at night you had to be pretty careful. Heaters didn’t work and cigarette smell in the house and in bedding. In Europe people smoke wherever they want ,not used to that when coming from Australia. Most places don’t allow it inside so we were pretty sensitive to that. Place was clean but it just had a bad set up .

Pour 110chf la nuit dans cette région, il ne fallait pas s'attendre à mieux. Je resterais max 2 nuit

Nous avons apprécié l'emplacement du logement ainsi que la facilité d'accès. De plus il y a des place de parcs disponibles juste devant l'appartement. L'appartement n'est vraiment pas cher pour la région.

Il n'y a pas grand choses comme ustensiles de cuisine. Le frigo ne donne pas confiance. La porte d'une des chambres ne se ferme pas et le lit à étage grince. Les lumières ne sont pas très chaleureuses

Defekt, schmuddelig und gefährlich

Leider ausser der genug grossen Wohnfläche nichts.

Vieles war defekt, Kühlschrank, Küchenschränke, Treppengeländer, Hochbett. Zudem war dir Küche schlecht ausgestattet, wenig Töpfe, keine Kaffeelöffel, … und es war gesamthaft unsauber.

4.0 / 10.0

Enttäuschend

Die Lage der Unterkunft ist sehr schön.

Die Ausstattung der Unterkunft ist auf ein absolutes Minimum beschränkt. Möbel und restliches Inventar sind älteren Datums und müssten ersetzt und/oder repariert werden. Auch wenn es sauber übergeben wurde, bleibt ein Gefühl von Schmuddeligkeit. Es wird sehr warm in den Schlafräumen, welche sich unter dem Dach befinden und wenn die Fenster nachts auf der Rückseite des Hauses geöffnet sind, sind die Viertelstunden und Stundenschläge der Kirche laut zu hören. Das zweite, kleinere Zimmer (Schlauch) ist mit einem Kajütenbett ausgestattet. Für Erwachsene nicht zu empfehlen. Für eine Übernachgung OK aber nicht mehr und es bleibt definitiv nur bei einem mal.
