An adorably kitch, airy apartment idealy situated for exploring this historic city.
Super transport links to the airport and city centre. As instructed by our hosts - airport bus to Westbahnhof, and then a tram (No.5) directly to the front door!! For those that don't wanto wak, it was also simple to get into the centre by tram, but we just walked in.
The apartment itself was clean, homely and adorably kitch. Main feature were the widows which comprised the whole back wall. These were both a blessing and a curse - giving the place tonnes of natural light and a rooftop view of the neighbourhood. You can be nosy at the people across the road without worrying that poeple are really doig the same to you. Not double glazed though, so you do get street noise (trams in particular, which start quite early!! but it's the kind of thing you just get used to - pack earplugs if that kind of thing bothers you) Curtains don't close in the middle, which does mean that you can either see the lights of the apartments opposite at night, and the light creeps in very early in the morning (however this just gives you more time to explore the wonders of Vienna!)
Other than that, the apartment had a well stocked kitchen, plus two supermarkets very close by (Billa opposite, and Aldi down the road), so self-catering was very easy and actually quite fun!
Creaky wooden floorboards, rugs, loads of books, and lots of mirrors just made the whole place a really nice hangout space, perfect for relaxing at the end of a busy day exploring.
The bathroom was lovely. Warm, with lots of space, a nice big sink and a big bath with an overhead shower and detachable one too (and super hot water).
Our hosts were very friendly, helpful and quick to reply to messages. They had excellent recommendations as well as supplying a good pile of guidebooks and brochures of the different sights.
I would definitely come back to Vienna, and would most definitely plan to stay at Lisa and Mina's again.
