Great location!
Enjoyed a lot our stay in nearby Fribourg. Great location close to the highway and all amenities. Apartment was clean. Family was quiet and the only noises we heard came from the farm close by. The view of the fields in front of the house is beautiful and peaceful. Only downside for us: the pillows that were too flat and could be replaced. We would certainly go back if needed.

Un studio où il fait bon vivre
Merci pour l'accueil les conseils et les services. Studio bien équipé, lit très confortable, chauffage au sol très appréciable. Emplacement très paisible et place de parking direct. Je reviendrai sans hésitation.

Très bien situé, propre et hôte disponible
Parfait séjour chez Céline et Cédric. L'appartement est très joli et d'une propreté exemplaire. La cuisine est très bien équipée et il y a tout ce qu'il faut pour se sentir comme chez soi ! De plus, l'emplacement est idéal avec une gare ferroviaire à 1 km et 2 accès autoroutiers tout proche. Céline et Cédric nous ont accueil chaleureusement et ont su nous donner quelques très bonnes adresses aux alentours. Expérience très agréable et à renouveler lorsque nous serons de retour en Suisse.
