Pretty disappointed with this place. Basically this is a rental property where it is clear the owners have never lived because there were no touches of home. The windows out to the busy street / neighboring unit do not have blinds or shutters, so coming out of the shower you have to be fully dressed because the neighbor sits on his balcony inches away from the uncovered window. At night, one of the windows without a covering is directly in front of a street lamp, so it is very bright inside the unit. The manager tried to tell me that all of the windows have blinds or shutters, but this is simply not true. And even the window treatments that do exist are pretty paltry and do not do a good job of blocking light at night. Besides from the window issue, the management was not very friendly. She refused to bring linens for the bunk beds (I wanted to sleep in the bunk bed room because the main bedroom was too bright for me). My husband and I also only received one large towel and one hand towel each for a week's stay when it was 90 degrees the entire time. So we had to share using one towel for the shower and one towel for the lake. And we only received one kitchen towel, which we used to dry dishes, so we had no kitchen hand towel. Basically it felt we were being nickeled and dimed the entire time.

Charming, clean, great location

Fantastic little spot in the heart of Old Town Annecy. We walked to everything we needed (including the train station) and rented bikes to tour around the lake and paddle boats for boating/swimming. The place is lovely. Highly recommend. Only downside is that it gets pretty warm on hot days. There are fans for every room, which helps.

A lovely, well situated apartment in Annecy

The apartment was lovely, with no major issues during our stay. The beds were comfortable, shower pressure was good and water was very hot. The apartment is very well situated, a short walk from multiple restaurants, cafes, the Monoprix shop, the lake and the train station. We would have no hesitation recommending that someone stay there. We only have a few minor observations for the host: 1) There are no chopping boards in the apartment, which makes it a bit harder to prepare food. 2) You advertise that there is a nespresso machine in the apartment; it would be nice if there were a few capsules for the use of guests to tide them over until they can get to a shop. 3) We messaged quite a long time before coming regarding the use of a cot, but received no reply about it. Fortunately you were able to provide one, but it would have been nice to know in advance for peace of mind.

This apartment is exceptional. Location, style, functionality, cleanliness. There were many tourists taking photos of this apartment because it’s so special. On the canal in the front and center of town in the back. Close to beach also. I can’t say enough. Had access to bikes and loved the character of the apartment and building yet modern inside while maintaining the character. We will be back. Amazing place to stay.

Super fun

Great location on the canal, super close to groceries, near bakeries, ice cream shops, restaurants, and shopping. The house is very well supplied with all of the dishes, utensils, and appliances you need. We also met the owner who was very kind and helpful. We had a great time. Note that you are not supposed to swim in the canals but putting your feet in is fine (as far as I could tell) and you are only supposed to swim in certain areas of the lake.

Charming apartment in Annecy

Spent a wonderful week at this apartment. Loved the location, close to everything. You do have to pay for parking, which, depending on what is happening in the city that day, can be difficult to find. Also, because it is close to the canal where people tend to hang out at night, it can be noisy. You also will need to bring your own kitchen soap, dishwasher soap (there was none for us to use), toilet paper (there was only one small roll for 5 people for a week) and shampoo. But the apartment itself is beautiful, very clean, so charming, and in the best location. We loved it. Would recommend without hesitation.

Beautiful apartment in a great location!

We were greeted by Moussa, who works downstairs at the kebab shop. Situated in a historic building, the apartment is brand new inside (I believe we were some of the first people to stay here). The furnishings were top notch and very stylish, exactly as described in the listing. The apartment is probably best situated for a small family as the bunk room adjoins the master bedroom (there is a door) but there is also a sleeper sofa and the living space would accommodate up to 6. We spent most of our time at the dining room table watching the other tourists take pictures of the building and canal below us. The apartment doesn't have a/c, which probably isn't needed, however we were there during a brief (and apparently unusual) heat wave, a quick text to the owners and Moussa was there with a new fan! The fan helped and Annecy returned to it's standard cooler weather our last two days. Some city and building noise with the widows open but that's the trade off for a central location. Noises subsided with the windows closed but we kept the galley windows open to hear the canal water rushing by!

Die Unterkunft ist sehr gut gelegen und gut ausgestattet. Innen sehr gut eingerichtet und wirklich sehr schön. Allerdings ist die ausziehbare Couch als Schlafmöglichkeit eine Zumutung. Nach 3 Nächten waren wir froh wieder in einem normalen Bett ohne Kuhle und quietschen bei jeder Bewegung zu haben. Bettwäsche für die Person die auf der Schlafcouch schlafen musste gab es leider auch nicht.

Bel appartement original bien situé dans l'hypercentre et meublé avec gout. Nous étions 4 adultes et un chien à l'aise malgré la surface moyenne car l'appartement est très bien agencé. Tous commerces au pied de l'immeuble. Parking pratique à l'hôtel de ville à 5 minutes à pied. Quelques équipements à réparer et à compléter (verres, carafe à eau...) mais pas gênant au final.
