Lauterbrunnen or bonigen

I am having trouble deciding whether to rent an apartment in Lauterbrunnen or Bonigen for a 4 day visit in December and would appreciate any thoughts or opinions from anyone who may have been to either place before.
Thanks, Linda

I'm not familiar with Bonigen but stayed for a week in Lauterbrunnen a few years ago and loved it. The town itself is just the right size - with a few restaurants and a small market. The views are lovely but the best thing is that Lauterbrunnen is such the transportation hub. It is easy to get everywhere in the Berner Oberland from Lauterbrunnen.
I also rented an apartment and cooked a little to save money. Since Switzerland in general is so expensive, eating in is a big help.
