First of all I must say that my comments are about one of Belinda’s apartments. The one located at Jahngasse, 18 apt 16( at the doorbell). It’s a small apartment but with plenty space for a couple that is going to spend most of the time outdoors. If you are going for business it’s ok too. The room has two beds so close one another that one might say that is a couple bed. This is very good during the sleeping hours because any movement made by one of the guests will not be felt by the other one. There’s a fine table very close to the outlets which is very good for charging the notebook and the smartphone ( don’t forget to bring your European adaptor). The kitchen is equipped with a great deal of cooking staff which I used only the fridge and the
microwave. The bathroom is really small and sometimes you must have contortionists skills to rub your back after a shower. Nothing really that hard to a solve. Believe me, you’ll be fine.
At the check in I was welcomed by a strong young woman who doesn’t speak one single word of English but it didn’t really matter because she could easily answer my questions by pointing to the things I wanted to know about. The apartment is on the second floor. So, you have to climb exactly 50 steps to get there, but the maid was so helpful that she took my carry-on luggage from my hand and took it upstairs. The
Apartment is not really in the Viena center but the number 1 tram will take you there in about 15 minutes and it’s no more then 8 minutes walk to the station. Be sure to download the “ WienMobil” app to buy the tickets. There are seniors tickets as well. There are two small grocery stores very close to the apartment. One of them opens on Sundays and stays opened till late hours.
The bad thing was the Wi-Fi. It only worked well for the first day. I stayed there for 8 days and for the following 7 days it worked very poorly with about 0,19mb for download. Belinda was very polite and told me she was going to complain about this to the “ A1 “ which is the provider. On the third day she told me that the company had some problems during the weekend but they had fixed the issue and that it would be
OK from that day on. That never happened and I had to use my smartphone 4G for the whole stay. One day before I left I learned from Belinda’s manager that there were no internet problems with the apartment next door which also belongs to her, so I can assure that the problem was really in my internet box and not with the company. I could also get the next door password and the
problem would be solved. Bad experience. Hope this incident won’t keep you away from booking this apartment which is a fine one.
