    Nothing. Everything was great

    It’s a lovely building in the hills around Thun. We absolutely loved the peace and quiet and the friendliness. The property had everything you need and was a great and easy place to travel into Thun, Grindelwald and Lauterbrunnen. Martin gifted us some wonderful local produce which was delicious :)

    Wonderful host. Very nice apartment on a small working farm. If you love horses, that will be icing on the cake!

    Beds were so comfortable. Kitchen was well stocked. Martin was a superb host. Prior to our arrival, he put eggs, jam, cheese, and milk in the fridge and fresh bread on the table. Amazing!

    Just a couple of suggestions: adding a toaster would be nice, and we had to close windows by 4 p.m. to avoid mosquitoes.Also It does require some travel to get to these popular spots like Lauterbrunnen or Grindelwald.

    The facilities were excellent, with clean beds, beautiful landscapes, and plenty of toys for kids. Martin, the friendly and attentive host, left fresh local jam, yogurt, and milk for us on arrival—so good that we bought more to take home! We also got free buses passes to travel to region covered by Thun pass.

    Perhaps the smell from horses downstairs but it's countryside - it's to be expected. Location is a bit away from Grindelwald etc but for the price it's acceptable if you have a car.

    Plenty of space for 4 people, breakfast food provided by the owner who also speaks good English, shop with local produce 50 m away, dogs are welcome, airconditioning in the living room.

    Martin is the best host I have ever seen. Although it was not included, he left snacks, breakfast and a bottle of wine in the refrigerator for us, which was extremely thoughtful and polite. The village where the house is located is very beautiful. It is close to the town of Thun. The general cleanliness of the house was great. The communication of the owner was very good. We were very happy to stay in such a well-designed house. I hope to stay again on my next trip.

    Comfortable beds, great kitchen, animals everywhere. I would highly recommend to anyone. It's a nice country escape, but has been remodeled to be a very clean and modern space. They also have an incredible and large DVD collection for movie nights.

    The odor from the stables.

    Our stay at Pony Hof was a delightful immersion into Swiss countryside living. Surrounded by a menagerie of animals and nestled in a picturesque neighborhood, our daughter reveled in the hands-on experience with chickens, horses, cows, sheep, rabbits and more. Mr. Martin, our gracious host, went above and beyond, stocking our fridge with an array of amenities including wine, cheese, and fresh fruits, and even providing complimentary bus passes for convenient exploration. Despite the odor from the nearby stables, the charming Swiss wooden chalet dating back to the 1760s provided a cozy and atmospheric retreat. Just a two-minute walk to the bus stop, Pony Hof offers the perfect blend of rustic charm, warm hospitality, and convenient access to explore the beauty of Switzerland.

    Honestly, the horses' dung are quite smelly but we do understand since it is a farm house. And lastly, we hope that you could provide a microwave and the basic toiletries such as toothpaste and toothbrushes.

    The owner was accommodating. The property was quite far from the town proper but it offered a generally peaceful and scenic ambiance

    The location lacks a curtain for some windows. Would be nice to add. We always have nightmasks but nevertheless, would have been nice to have curtains for all windows.

    Great location. The room is very spacious, well fitted kitchen en large comfy beds. The owners are helpful and very friendly and the price-quality is very good. Felt at home.

    There was too much smell of horses shit and too much flies, if we opened our windows as it was summer ,hundreds of flies came inside the apartment, and it was very difficult to live in that situation. TV was old classical, not the smart TV. .

    The location was excellent, and the host was very polite , nice, and supportive .they provide the guest card.

    Location was impressive.
