This was my first visit to Vienna and I read many reviews and decided to stay at Sophies. It ended up being an unpleasant experience . First, I never met Sophie and only communicated with her by text and she responded fairly quickly but whenever I had a question I had to go through several texts to get the answers and honestly it just seemed very unfriendly, and I have stayed in countless Airbnb's in many, many countries. Although the apartment was clean, the building was very dirty, the halls and staircases are filthy, there was even trash piled up by the mailboxes, which are in the building foyer and not open to the outside. When I arrived I found that the bed had only one side with a blanket, I guess that she thought because I was a single occupant that I only needed half of the bed made and only one pillow and one towel, after paying $1200 for four nights. I did complain to her the next day and she made the bed like in the photos and gave me another another towel but I just felt and she was doing just the minimum that was required. It is not convenient to the central city where all of the sites are, and not within walking distance I can assure you.. The neighbourhood is unattractive and seemed seedy and I would not recommend it to anyone. Upon leaving I rented a room at the Grand Ferdinand in the central city and it made all the difference in the world. Could walk to everything and it was less money than Sophies. Also, I cannot image who wrote the glowing reviews because I did not find Sophies at all like the
reviews that I read and made my decision on. So, I am giving my honest opinion because I read these reviews and make my decisions on them. I would not recommend this apartment.....there are many other choices.
