Sissi (Elisabeth) is such a kind host. From the very beginning she was communicative, responsive, and when we got there, attentive to all our requests. She was also very flexible in accomodoating us for an extra day at the last minute.
We chose this place over others because it looked cute and charming. It is SO CHARMING! The impeccable details and color and fun quirks fill the space with happiness.
Plus charm does not mean sacrificing quality. Everything is top notch. The living room is very spacious; sofa is cozy; kitchen has everything for a quick meal; bathroom is also excellent (and I did use the washer). To top it off, the BALCONY IS GORGEOUS. I think it is better than the pictures. It is also very quiet and peaceful, as it faces the courtyard. Before coming we were hesitant about the bunk bed, but it turned out it did not bother us at all. In fact the bed is quite comfortable.
The location was also perfect for my needs. The apartment is on a quiet and safe residential street, and only 3 blocks away is the main Avenue with great coffee shops and restaurants, and the u-bahn. It is within a 15-20 mins walk to all the main attractions downtown, and also 15 mins up is the Prater up north, a curious amusement park.
I stayed almost a week and was actually sad to leave. Not only do I recommend staying here, if I come to Vienna I will be sure to book it again!
