My stay was perfect in many angles:
- As many guests mentioned before, the bed is sooo comfortable.
- The space is clean. (Very nice cleaning lady prepared my room & welcomed me. Dominik was always available via phone as well for my questions)
- 7/24 hot water, nice shower
- Room/flat decoration is minimal & tasteful. Smells nice.
- Perfect location & beautiful neighbourhood with many gems in walking distance. Close to Belvedere (1-2 mins), U1 (6mins) (this was a must for me as I work in Vienna Int. Center/Kaisermühlen), 13A (1-2 mins)(which you'll understand soon is -the bus-), 18/D/O, Karlsplatz, Hauptbahnhof (train station)
- Dominik is a great host who is polite, friendly, always reachable and helpful. He even helped me with my luggage when I was leaving. So don't think twice, he is one of the best hosts I've stayed with.
Things to keep in mind:
I already knew these (only extra thing is construction) when I booked the place so it wouldn't be fair to say that these are problems. Just telling to make sure that your expectations are in place:
- There are two rooms in the flat which are adjacent to each other. I was looking for a calm/quite place so it was really nice for me but it's a flat that you might prefer to be extra careful about the noise. Dominik never said anything btw, it was me being an overthinker :) I was worried that I might disturb him; so if you're noisy/night owl make sure that you ask/talk about this beforehand.
- There was construction going on on the street, right in front of the next building, sometimes they started very early. (8:15-8:30 in the morning) It wasn't too bad but if the weather is nice and you keep the windows open, it can be. (btw it's over now- might be nice to check with Dominik before your stay whether such thing is happening)
- Bath & toilet are together
I already knew. Just sharing for info. Having said that, this never caused any trouble - I never had to wait.
- No common space to chill/eat.
Again, I alredy knew, no surprises but as I didn't want to eat in my room, mostly preferred to eat outside.
- Open kitchen is in the entrance, very close to the rooms.
I was worried about noise & smell; so didn't want to use it much -especially late at night.
- Heating was an issue when I first arrived (I mistakenly turned it up too much when trying to fix) but later on it was all set.
-----------
So - summing up :)
Great host, great location, tasteful decoration, peaceful place, perfect for relatively short stays. And if you encounter any problems, Dominik is always open to talk and ready to help. I totally recommend.
***Thank you so much again for everything Dominik, pleasure to meet you! ***
