This place was great for so many reasons: I was visiting Vienna with my father, celebrating both our birthdays and to run the marathon. The apartment was within a short walk to the U4 station (the stop is called "Friedensbrücke"). From this station we were able to get everywhere around the city. I needed to do short runs most days, the final stages of my marathon training. There's a running/walking trail along the river, a mere two blocks from the apartment. The trail was great, paved, lots of trees and some surprisingly tasty graffiti art along the way (I even stop to take pictures of the ones I liked the most). The apartment itself has everything we could ask for: Two separate rooms, each with a bed (one room doubled as a common area), a must, since my dad snores :-), a kitchen and a nice bathroom. There are a few restaurants nearby, so you should be able to find some decent food, unless it's past midnight. Finally, if you're in Vienna for the marathon, it actually passes through Friedensbrücke, so your family can just walk from the apartment and cheer on you as you cross the bridge (around kilometer 23).
