“Very comfortable bed!”
The location was perfect for me, as I was visiting a friend who lives in the area. But in general the location is very nice anyway. Right on the tram line, close to the train station. It's a lovely residential area, quiet. The bed was super comfortable! I absolutely loved it. The apartment was very clean and the whole building smelled very clean! The apartment had everything you'd need. I only used the bedroom and bathroom, but there was a kitchen and a living room woth tv and pullout couch.

“Cosy apartment near public transport”
Great accommodation in Bern! Very close to public transport (bus and tram stops), easy to reach the city center. The area is fairly quiet at night, there's a kiosk and a small market nearby, which makes life easier. The apartment is super cute and well decorated, beds and couch very comfortable, the space is really good. We particularly enjoyed the kitchen, which was well equipped and very cosy for our meals :) Phil was also very helpful and replied fast when we needed his help (something very small with the internet, but still). I would recommend the stay!

Great convenient location - one minute from the tram stop. Despite being close to a train line, the apartment was quiet. Great kitchen facilities Phil was really helpful in solving the issue with finding the specific apartment, fridge and being unable to close the key safe when checking out.
