I lived in this apartment for one month while working in Vienna on a short-term contract. I chose this apartment because the Wieden area is a quiet neighborhood with easy access to the City center. The apartment worked well for just one person with basic amenities, not many frills. It might be tight for two people after more than a few days. Although the kitchen is very small, it is well-equipped. Transportation access is great with 3 trams running immediately in front, plus the UBahn station a 5-minute walk away. There are several good markets nearby, plus bakeries and restaurants. Try Artner on Floragasse for dinner. And, right next door Cafe Corto e Nero is good for coffee, wine, a light meal, and the New York Times. For things to do in the area, walk west to the Nachtsmarkt or east to the Botannic Gardens, adjacent to the Belvedere. Yes, the trams and street noise can be loud, but this is a city and to be expected (for me, when the windows were closed, it was not an issue at all.) One note: climbing up and down the stairs will get you in shape. The first trip up with luggage is extra hard. You go up Steige I (not Steige III as written in the directions.) I enjoyed my time here and would consider staying here if I will be living in Vienna again.
