Everything in this apartment was nice. There were two large bathrooms, which was also really nice. The washer and dryer did not work well for us, but maybe we didn't know how to use it well-- haha. Everything here was clean and basic. It was a comfortable place to be.

Easy bus ride to the train station. We got unlimited Swiss rail passes for our stay and enjoyed travelling all over Switzerland during the day. This area seemed quieter than in the middle of the city.

Good location to get in and out of city center and provided all needs for a nice stay.

This is a lovely three bedroom flat nestled next to woods above Lucerne. Easy bus access (and free bus pass) make it very accessible but not bad to walk. Roomy. Well, if oddly, provisioned. Bed sqishy but not bad. Quiet neighbourhood. Only complaints are the difficult access to key safe in mailbox (could not read numbers even with flashlight), confusing trash/recycling instructions and answers to queries lost in translation. Otherwise, ideal

We found the property to be clean and comfortable. Language barrier was a small problem at check in but was resolved quickly. Location was perfect, lovely neighborhood and right across street from bus stop! What a marvelous city!

This review is from an American perspective.
The apartment is on a hill above the city in a quiet neighborhood. The bus stops right next to the apartment. Our cheerful host saw our group and came down to greet us.
Comfort with public transportation is a must unless you want to spend a fortune on taxis. But the transportation system in Switzerland runs like clockwork. And Google Maps integrates flawlessly. My kids left on the first 5:46 am bus with luggage for a 10 minute ride to the train station and caught the 6:00 am train. It really is that good.
In a prior trip I stayed in a downtown hotel. Talk about road noise and crowded streets. The 10 min bus ride (free with Swiss pass, and the hosts will also provide a "City Pass" that grants free bus travel) to this quiet neighborhood is a good trade-off. When you have a pass, just board the bus through the middle doors. No need to interact with the driver. Only one time in our entire trip we were asked to show our pass to a control agent.
The apartment is simple, clean and quiet. Laminate flooring. Internet, TV. Nice dining room with sufficiently stocked kitchen. Nice sitting area with 2 sofas. Two bathrooms, one with a shower, the other with a tub/shower combo. My group of adults all prefered the shower. Tub is short and more appropriate for children.
There is a combo clothes washer/dryer. Compared to a separate units, it takes forever and the clothes are still damp after 3 hours. High efficiency appliances take longer. Also, it has a much smaller capacity than most US machines. I would hang my damp clothes on a drying rack.
The beds are simple but comfortable. One room had a "queen"; the other rooms both had two beds. These beds were something between an American "single" and "double".
This arrangement fit my group perfectly. I think the beds could be joined together if desired for a couple.
There are two porches, one small and the other very small. The kitchen had a stove, refrigerator, dishwasher (and a fondue pot!). There is an expresso machine which uses coffee pods. There was a bowl with different styles. The ones that were aluminum worked, the ones that were plastic did not. I guess they were designed for a different machine.
Halfway between the trainstation and the apartment is a street with multiple groceries. There are also grocery stores in the train station.
This was a better deal than 3 hotel rooms!

We loved this house with all its homely touches! Lovely decorated and spotless clean. The bedding was very good. Absolutely quite and nice neighborhood, so great for sleeping.
There is a 10 min ride with the direct bus No. 10 from Lucerne train station ( 6-7 min from old town) to the apartment. The frequency is also good, until 00.30 in the night. The host provides all guests with a free bus ticket for the whole period of stay.
Highly recommended place for families!

The owner was super sweet and the apartment was spacious, clean and homie. If I get to come back, I will definitely stay here again.

The apartment is about 15 minutes by bus from the train station. It stops right by the apartment and they run right on schedule. Very convenient and easy.
There were 6 adults and we had plenty of room with three bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
Tanja met us at the apartment on our arrival and gave us all the information we needed about the apartment and gave us all free bus passes.
I would definitely recommend this apartment to family’s or groups, wanting a relaxing quiet area.

The beautiful forest and hills located by the apartment make a wonderful walk or run in the morning or afternoon. It’s away from the heart of the city but it’s accessible in just 7 stops by bus. Great place!

Walking distance down to the town and a lovely walk up the other way through the woods to the hills and mountain views. Spacious apartment in a quiet residential street. It was handy having the underground car park.

We spent a great time in this beautifully equipped apartment. It was great to have 2 bathrooms and two balconies. The apartment is 10 minutes away from the train station and city center but there is a very good bus connection that departs every ten minutes. The neighborhood is great, very quiet, clean and safe, the forest and the fields and a ventage point (belvedere) are just around the corner. We received from the host free bus pass for the whole period of stay.
Highly recommended.

The location was great as the bus service is excellent. The apartment is lovely and spacious and well equipped. The table on the balcony was a welcome place to have a meal.

After initial difficulties finding the key and the apartment (we were only given the building address), we had a lovely stay. The apartment was quite spacious for three couples and had all the amenities we needed. The walk to town is all down hill, so getting back took longer and was more work than we’d like. Lucerne is beautiful and we had a car to get around, so it worked out for us.
