As other reviewers have mentioned, the window leads to an alley with a garbage bin. It’s noisy all the time including during the night. Also the motion light in the alley is always coming on full blast when anyone walks through the alleyway. This lights up the entire room, making it difficult to sleep! Also... the place is HOT!!! It’s 30 degrees in Vienna, and we were two people in a tiny room with a window that doesn’t fully open and I simply couldn’t sleep.
The other issue is this very small apartment has a shared kitchen for all five apartments. There were many others coming in through the night, making LOTS of noise, dropping things, laughing, etc.. Because of the proximity, it sounded like they were in the room with us. It would be nice if there was at least a noise curfew for the units during the late evening hours.
So, when you add the less-than-ideal location next to the alley, the extreme temperatures (no fan in the unit), and the other four noisy units next to you, this becomes less of an appealing value. Especially if you value your sleep!!! To top it all off, none of this information is included in the listing description. :(
In closing, it’s not ALL bad. The room was nice, clean, and bright with a nice bathroom and shower. Also, communication was excellent and friendly. I just think for all the compromises you are making in comfort, at the asking price per-night, we won’t be staying again any time soon!
