Reviews for The Old Town Flat
Review 1：Parking is a little bit difficult, so you can arrange it in advance with the owners.
Review 2：The apartment is designed amazing with own style by the owner. The location is beautiful, close to all wonderful shops and restaurants in the Old Town.
Review 3：Nothing. (One recommendation is to accept other forms of payment than cash).
Review 4：A solid ten. We stayed with Family and occupied the entire building. The three apartments were well furnished with fun and artful decorations. All were functional and represented an exceptional incorporation of modern amenities into a very classy old building.
Review 5：Having to feed the parking meter was a bit of any issue, but if you don't have a car then this is not an issue.
Review 6：The location is very nice in the old town.
Review 7：It was a surprise to us to get there and learn that this was not a regular hotel. The room is part of the owner's property. Thus there was no hotel staff to help us as we needed something. When we got there, we did not know how to check in because there was no one to talk to us. The owner actually lived inside the same building, but we did not know. It would be nice if the owner would send us an email in advance to suggest us on how to pick up the room key to get in our room. There was no soap or shampoo in the shower (one big soap installed in the wall in the bathroom's sink). We have been travelling a lot and never had to carry our own soap and shampoo when we paid to stay at a hotel at this price (220 CHF a night). The room was not cleaned everyday and no new towel (as the owner said to us that this is not a hotel). But if you asked the owner for a new towel, she gave you. The owner only accepted "cash" --another withdraw! All in all, this place might be a delight for some families (as there are two separated bedrooms) who prefer to cook their own meals (as there is a small kitchen). It is not just for my family!!
Review 8：The property's location is excellent. It is inside the Old Town near shopping and restaurants. Our room has a balcony with grapes hanging over. It is lovely!
Review 9：We never received any communication from the owner about access codes or any other helpful information. Also, we only found out that only cash was accepted for the stay when we were checking out. If we had been staying for a longer time, having that much cash on hand would have been problematic.
Review 10：Great location, right by the town's walls. Very quiet with a nice dining/living room area which looked out at a lovely garden. There's even an outdoor patio you can use if the weather is nice.
Review 11：Nice and original appartments well located in the old town but in a quite place. during the absence of the owners we have been welcomed by a very sympatic young lady!
Review 12：very small, could not sit up in lower bunk bed, no Guard on upper bunk, did not like the automatic lights, ant problem in kitchen,
Review 13：Great location directly on town wall, quirky place
Review 14：Not a thing!
Review 15：Excellent apartment for family with children. Apple TV and bunk beds are major hits with kids! Owners are incredibly friendly. We loved it so much - we have booked again!
Review 16：We loved everything about this place. It was all remodeled with a spacious feeling 2 bedroom with fully supplied kitchen. The location was excellent and the owners fantastic. They were quick to help get us settled and even let us borrow their butter when we found out it was a holiday and all the stores were closed!
Review 17：The sound carried between the bathrooms, or friends could hear our daughter singing in the shower :) and we could hear their conversation as well. Not a big deal at all. Also, parking a bit tricky, owners very helpful but just to be aware that even in a small town you must pay to park and must park in special areas.
Review 18：Charming, character filed lodging with plenty of space for us and our two daughters to spread out. Murten itself is a beautiful little town within half an hour by train to bern. We stayed two nights, but definitely could have stayed longer! Kids loved the built in bunk beds, we loved the patio and garden. Wifi great, kitchen well equipped, including a dishwasher. Rooms were ready when we arrived with a key in the lock. Within two minute walk to the lake and the main shopping/restaurant area, five to ten minutes to train station. The wall around the old city backed this property which gave even more character.
Review 19：The internet was very weak in some areas and ther was no kettle for hot water. The upper bed in the other room without border it was scary to sleep up.
Review 20：it was a nice place.
Review 21：Everything about this apartment was fantastic. Very cozy with all the facilities we required. Amazing location in the heart of Murten (a truly beautiful place) and very accommodating hosts. We loved it here.
Review 22：The location of this apartment is first rate. The street is quiet but one block from the town center. The property is adjacent to the old town wall which is great for history buffs. The apartment had plenty of room. We had one of the upstairs flats, the ground floor flat is even bigger. The family that runs the place is very easygoing. A sign with our name was attached to our door when we arrived and we could simply go in and get settled without check in process. Good restaurants very close by as well as bakery and other shops. Loved the town of Murten - it was a real find.
