Renate & Martin are very thoughtful and always helpful. Their place is a gem in itself and has everything that one might need during their stay but with a touch of tastefully designed and decorated items. The place is as beautiful outside as it is on the inside. Will definitely stay with them if we get the chance again.

Myriel (co-host) deserves all the credit! She was beyond kind and wonderful! She made us feel right at home and well-taken off! Also the view of the river and trees from the window was lovely.

Exceptional host and property. We felt right at home in the apartment and local area. The host remembered and supplied the extra bedding we needed which was excellent as usually this doesn’t happen with other hosts. He made us feel so welcome and taken care of. He was so considerate and proactive. Lovely, kind people. The location is ideal - 1 minute or so to a transport hub that has you in the centre of the city within minutes. Local shops and restaurants within 1 or 2 minutes walk also. The best of locations - so near to the centre but so quiet and peaceful. Thank you for such a great stay.

Our stay at Michael's place in Bern, Switzerland, was exceptional. The apartment was impeccably clean, modern, and well-stocked, making it feel like a true home away from home. The hosts were incredibly courteous and helpful, sharing their extensive travel experiences and local insights. One of the highlights was a delightful dinner they hosted for us, filled with delicious homemade dishes and joyful conversation. Located in a secure and quiet neighborhood, the apartment was still centrally situated with excellent public transportation options. This perfect blend of tranquility and accessibility allowed us to explore Bern effortlessly. Overall, this Airbnb exceeded our expectations. With its modern amenities, welcoming hosts, and prime location, our stay felt like a dream getaway. We left with cherished memories and a strong desire to return!

4.95 out of 5 average rating, 38 reviewsCozy studio apartment with patio (terrace)
Cedric could not have been more helpful, clear, patient or responsive to my many questions. The apartment was exactly as described. Best of all was the location--one could not hope for a better one! Having lived in Bern before a main reason I chose this apt was because it was on one of the most charming streets in the Old Town where you can walk to everything or if you wish trams and trains are very near by including the main train station. Indeed I shall be returning!
