Birgit's place is wonderful, conveniently located near shops, places to eat and public transportation (almost right outside the door). Yet, the area was quiet (apart from the happy sounds of children playing) and enjoyable to walk in. The flat itself had everything we needed for a pleasant stay: a well-equipped kitchen with a dishwasher (albeit no microwave) and comfortably-sized rooms. It was a great spot from which to explore Vienna.
