Amazing 3 day stay in Appenzell

Three of us stayed in this three bedroom flat in a neighborhood in Appenzell. Everything was just as described in the listing. The flat had wonderful views of the mountains and little farms. The location was so close to grocery shopping, trips to our favorite bakery, downtown shopping, and even the train station. The flat was roomy and the kitchen well stocked with utensils, dishes, even spices and a coffee machine and capsules for it. . It has a washer/ dryer combo. It was very clean and neat. We would recommend it wholeheartedly.
