We arrived at the check in time and no one answered the call box, so we called the number on the door. Someone answered and said they would be down in a couple minutes. 10 minutes later, we were finally let in. Only two of the three washing machines and one of the three dryers was working, but there weren't any signs saying they were out of order. Also, there are signs in the unit saying if you don't follow cleaning instructions, you could be charged an extra $60, and daily room cleaning is an extra $10 per day per person. I don't know if this is normal in Zurich, but it's the first time I have seen it. The unit was spacious and the cost was affordable in comparison to other properties.

The property is generally okay and has basic kitchen utensils. However, I must say the communication and staffing are poor. Despite the email stating that a team member would assist during check-in, this was not our experience. We followed the instructions and rang the bell for the office, but we waited for 10 minutes with no response. Ultimately, it was a fellow guest—who was also waiting for assistance—who let us in. Once inside, we waited another 10-20 minutes to be checked in. The staff member who finally assisted us also appeared to be a member of the cleaning staff. Their attentiveness to guests seems unreliable, as we repeatedly saw other guests waiting around the property for extended periods without being attended to.

HORRIBLE! My wife and I travel extensively and the was THE WORST EXPERIENCE EVER. No hot water first day. Called phone number listed as hotel contact but was answered by owner/manager (or someone). The man was rude, angry that we called, and uninterested in helping. He told us to call the office (his was the only number listed. We had no office phone number). No channel changer. Horrible beds and pillows. Old, run down unit with horrible, offensive stench. Candy, empty water bottles and a thick layer of dust under the bed. I had to shower immediately after arriving at the next hotel to wash the unclean feeling I still had from Inside Five. Would NEVER, EVER, EVER stay there again.

Disliked: Cleanliness, room comfort
We were very disappointed in our stay. The room was late being ready and we had to wait in the lobby even though we actually showed up after the check in time. The bed only had one single comforter for the queen size bed and two people. We wanted to turn on the fan as the room was very stuffy, but the fan was so grimy and almost disgusting, the night table beside the bed was broken and unusable, and overall the room was not well cared for. The walls are very thin and not noise resistant at all. We could hear people talking and using the bathroom etc. It is quite a walk from downtown. While we were aware, it seemed further than advertised. In general, not a great stay!

Studio was quite small No air conditioning The double bed had a ill-fitting doona ie. the doona was under-size & probably more suitable for a single bed ( photo available ) The shower was very small The shower screen doors did not fully close ( photo available ) Door to shower/toilet room had no door stopper ( photo available) In short, we would not recommend this facility to anyone!

One of the rooms that we had was excellent. I think that the other room was still being renovated so wasn't at the highest standard of the other room. Overall good location, good check in, friendly people.

The manager was very pleasant & helpful. The room was clean but nowhere near as nice as it appeared in photos. There were lots of little things that needed attention, like dodgy light switches, a fold-up bedside table that was wobbly (therefore unusable) & a kettle that poured water everywhere except in the cup. The shower is very small, but water is hot & the pressure good. Having a fridge & microwave was very handy. I probably wouldn't walk the streets at night alone. We were very grateful to be given access to the room 2 hrs before our official check-in time of 3pm.

After reading a lot of reviews, I'm nervous about the stay. Turn out it was a good stay. We travel as three friends and need a bigger room to stay together. The room is good for a family, clean, and the price is reasonable. The area around the apartment has a kind of international vibe, so there are many international restaurants to choose from. 10-15 minutes walking distance from the main train station and attractions. They allow us to leave 1 luggage at the office for 2 days, super nice. The check-in process gives me anxiety. First, the door to enter the apartment was locked, and no one was there to open the door for you. Then we were able to enter the apartment, and where is the office to check in? Turn out the office is the closed-door room across the tiny elevator; we have to press the bell-ring and wait until someone comes to open that office for us. Other than the check-in process, we are happy with the stay.
