This was a great flat! The space is exactly as shown in the photos. We really appreciated that there were plenty of closets, lots of countertops to spread our things, and hangers. The entry room was great to have in the city for taking off shoes, hanging jackets, and depositing shopping bags on the bench. The host has severance umbrellas available in case of rain, a nice touch. It was clean, well-organized, and our host took the time to explain all the features like the electric blinds. The windows are new and kept out even the sound of the trucks making deliveries the restaurants on the street below. The flat was fully stocked with soap, coffee filters, dishwasher tablets, laundry detergent, garbage bags, etc.
We appreciated the generous spaces, good lighting, and thoughtful design. We were able to relax at the end of the day with a nice glass of Austrian wine, enjoy a delicious breakfast (great coffee maker & excellent locally ground coffee from Oefferl) with local breads and specialties. Vienna is filled with great restaurants so we ate out everyday between sightseeing and visits with relatives.
This location was really excellent. It's on a pedestrian street so no cars except for deliveries. It's just a 2 minute walk to the Mariahilferstrasse where there are many excellent bakeries (including Josef Brot), 3-4 full service grocery stores, Wein & Co, plus many specialty shops. There are lots of great restaurants within walking distance. Though you can easily walk to the Ring, we took the 57A which was located right outside. The 13A bus which runs to the Hauptbahnhof is also right outside. The U2 is right on the Mariahilferstrasse and gets you to the Stephansplatz in about 7 minutes (including time to wait for the train). Vienna public transport is the best of all the big cities we've visited. Clean, safe, fast, reasonably priced, & gets you where you want to go. It's on the honor system, but be sure to have a (validated) ticket - there are random checks (I was stopped on this trip).
I have visited Vienna almost every year for the last 20 years. This was a park of the city that I was not that familiar with except for the occasional shopping trip. After this stay, I have to say I really loved this location for experiencing the best of Wien. This flat was great - location, comfort, amenities, and a helpful host who met us at checkin and checkout and ensured that everything was as it should be.
