If you're considering a stay in this apartment, just... do it! Everything about our stay was bang-on: the incredibly central location (with its own surrounding of very cool cafés and bars), the beautiful decor, the well-equipped kitchen, the robust internet connection (I was working from the apartment, so this was crucial!), the authentic feel of the building, the friendly and punctual André - and of course, Vienna itself.

I won't go into the many wonders of the city itself; they're so well documented elsewhere that it would be pointless to repeat. However, I will share this one detail: on one rainy evening during our stay, we hooked up my laptop to the telly and watched the wonderful Before Sunrise - a homage to the art of dialogue and the city of Vienna - which really got us in the mood for some top-notch wandering the following day. I'd highly recommend doing the same, as your visit will be all the better for it.

All in all, this was our first experience with Airbnb, and we couldn't be happier. Well done, Andrei, for giving this service a good name :)
