We were overall very disappointed with our stay. We chose this apartment for a 5 day stay in Vienna over Christmas. We chose it as the photos looked amazing, had good reviews, touted having a commercial quality kitchen (to allow cooking of Christmas day meal), and it looked light filled and airy.
When we arrived we found that the place was very dark, smelled like mould/moisture and was generally very run down. The price was very inflated over the normal price for the Xmas period and was extremely poor value.
Pros
Good location
Comfy large couch
Comfy bed
Cons
Darkness and odour from mould/moisture. The apartment is on the basement level which contributes to this.
Kitchen is definitely not of commercial quality and had limited equipment. Some dishes in kitchen cupboards were dirty and needed washing before use.
Bathroom was in poor condition, particularly the shower with tiles falling off, was quite dirty (we wore sandals when showering) and generally needs some TLC/maintenance.
Apartment isn't stand alone but is a duplex style which should be mentioned in the ad. It is separated by a stairwell with a door at the top and only a curtain at the bottom which isn't ideal.
Water heater in kitchen switches on about every 2 minutes, making an annoying noise which is irritating.
TV is prehistoric, and listed DVD library is virtually non existent.
Sandra never met with us and wasn't the best communicator. All face to face dealings were with her housekeeper who spoke no English which made it a challenge.
This is a frank and honest review, and I cannot recommend staying here. It is the most disappointing flat I have stayed in using AirBnB.
