Recycle & dispose

Garbage, paper and cardboard must be disposed of in the waste room at number 35 (situation plan). All other materials such as batteries, PET/plastic bottles, glass and tin/metal are taken to the supermarket or disposal points.

The surveillance cameras in the waste room help to keep the area clean and tidy. Save yourself extra fees for our efforts. Thank you for your support!

  • Household waste: Dispose of household waste in the official blue “Bebbi bags” in the containers in the waste room. We will provide you with the first bag, additional bags are available in supermarkets at the checkout (10 bags of 17 liters each cost CHF 12.00). Waste collection is on Mondays and Thursdays.
  • Paper & cardboard: Separate containers are located in the waste room next to the waste containers.
  • Glass, aluminum, tinplate & batteries: Disposal points are listed here: The nearest collection points are at Erlenstrasse 1 and Erlenstrasse 74 (both stations are approx. 2 minutes’ walk away).

WiFi

We have already sent you the access data and password for the WiFi by email before your stay. If you have any questions or anything is unclear, please get in touch!

TV

Our apartments are equipped with Samsung Smart TVs. With the Smart TVs you can stream movies, shows and series with your own subscription (Netflix, Disney, etc.) without additional devices or a cable connection.

Instructions for using the Smart TVs:

Network connection
You can connect to a separate network that is intended exclusively for Smart TVs.
– Network name: SmartTV
– Password: Smart7845RT5!

Please only use this network and not the WIFI network, otherwise it will be overloaded.

Teleboy App
The Teleboy app is pre-installed on your Smart TV. You can watch 10 hours of TV every month free of charge and ad-free. Please note that these 10 ad-free hours per month are limited – after that, the app will still be available, but with ads. So if you watch a lot at the beginning of the month, a new guest may have fewer options at the end of the month.

Want to watch more? With a Teleboy paid subscription you can watch unlimited and without advertising.

We offer you the Teleboy subscription with a discount code:
– Price: CHF 9.90 per month (instead of CHF 14.90) – valid for a maximum of 240 months
– Subscription code: SWISSLODGING
– Validity: until 31.12.2025
– The subscription can be canceled monthly. You can find more information on the Teleboy website
– Direct link to redeem: Teleboy

Please note: The discount code is only valid for new tenants and cannot be combined with other codes.

If you already use your own apps, you can also install them on the Smart TV. To do this, follow the instructions.

If you have any questions about using the TV or the apps, please contact us.

Practical tips & important rules

  • Quiet hours are from 10.00 pm to 7.00 am. Avoid excessive noise during the day.
  • Please report any damage or defects immediately.
  • Move furniture only after consultation.
  • Our heating system reacts slowly. Do not set the thermostat above level 4.
  • Ventilate twice a day for 5 minutes to prevent mold growth, especially in the bathroom. Regular ventilation is also good for the indoor climate and your health in winter.
  • Please do not leave drinks and food open, as this may attract flies.
  • Air conditioning systems are not permitted in residential buildings in Switzerland. In the heat of summer, open the windows in the morning and keep them closed during the day. Also close the blinds. One mobile fan is available per apartment (in the cupboard on your floor, labeled with your apartment number).
  • Smoking is prohibited in the apartments. Please do not throw cigarette butts in the garden.

Further important points and rules can be found in our house rules.
