This place was wonderful and Raphael and Oliver were great hosts! When we checked in, Raphael offered tips on using Vienna's public transit (which is saying something, because Vienna's public transit system is already so efficient and affordable!). The apartment is beautiful, with great natural light. The kitchen is well-stocked with dishes and cooking equipment, and we appreciated the details of extra linens and a fuzzy blanket in the closet. It's located on a quiet street in neighborhood where lots of students and families live, and it's very close to several different kinds of public transit. There's a bakery just around the corner that's perfect for stocking up.
I would just like to clarify about the renovations for future guests: we were made a little nervous at first by the appearance of the entryway and hallway, which is definitely in a state of disrepair during the temporary renovations. The next morning, once we realized that there were plenty of people in the building living their lives happily in that space (families, young professionals, people listening to music, etc.), we felt much more comfortable. So I wanted to share that it's a safe place to live and the apartment itself is not affected by the renovations (we never even heard the construction from the apartment).
