Do yourself a favor and book this Airbnb for your next trip to Vienna. You will think you've died and gone to heaven. Died, yes, because it's up three flights of 27 steps per flight (yes, I counted, and, no, there's no elevator), but you will swear you've arrived in heaven once you enter this gorgeous apartment.
Soaring ceilings, scrupulously clean, refreshing decor, your own balcony to enjoy a glass of wine at the end of the day... Your hosts have thought of everything from sumptuous bedding to heavenly diffuser scents (I have to know what it is!), even a rain shower! It honestly felt as serene and lovely as a spa.
What's more, it is a mere 2-3 minutes from the ubahn Pilgramgasse station, a grocery, several bus stops, and a cafe that serves the most amazing cakes. (Max has curated local eateries, and we enjoyed both we tried: Steman's and Gregor's.) Public transport to the city center and surrounding areas was quick and easy.
Even being so close to everything, I was shocked at how well the windows and balcony doors blocked street noise. It made the apartment blissfully quiet. The air conditioning and washer/dryer were also appreciated.
Max is a warm and responsive host. It made our trip to Vienna feel like staying at a five star hotel!
