I had a great stay in this apartment. It is about 2 blocks from the Westbahnhof, on a quiet street, in a lovely, older building. I stayed for 2 weeks and was quite comfortable. The place was very clean and attractively decorated. It was perfect for one person, and perhaps for 2 if they are a couple. It was nice and quiet at night. In fact, the area was quiet, but near many places I wanted to go. The bed is very comfortable. I was warm and cozy at night. All the furniture was attractive and comfortable. The couch was comfortable and looked like it could be an extra bed. My daughter enjoyed hanging out on it while I cooked dinner. There were the basic essentials in the kitchen, though I you would probably not be able to cook a very complex meal. The bathroom was clean and had a washing machine in it. There was also a rack for drying clothing, and iron. I did not use the latter. The internet service was good and reliable. That was important to me since I had to do some work from the apartment. We were able to zoom with my husband on another continent, as well as stream movies. Good shades and curtains for privacy at night.
The windows are nice a large, so it was sunny. On one side there is a nice view to the courtyard below, with a tree right outside the bedroom window, and there is a small table a chairs where one could sit if one wanted to. I mainly just put my trash there in the bins. The living room looks onto the main street with lovely large windows. There is a coffeehouse at one end of the block and a restaurant at the other end. Both have outdoor seating, which is perfect during a pandemic.
Just walking places from there was easy. It is near the Mariahilferstrasse, which I walked to all the time to go meet my daughter, whom I was visiting while she is a guest with her high school exchange family. I also went on my own to the bookstore Thalia, or to window shop, get an ice cream, people watch and go to the museums at the other end. I really walked to a lot of things from there. The other end of Mariahilferstrasse from where the apartment is has the Museum Quarter, with the Leopold and the Museum of Modern Art.
I also could go 2 blocks down the street and around the corner to the Westbahnhof and get the U3 subway to take it 7 minutes to Stephansplatz. From there I walked a few blocks to the Albertina. Or I took a different street at Stephansplatz, and walked a few more blocks in the direction of Karlsplatz to the Albertina Modern. I went many more places from the apartment, which was close enough to either walk to everything we wanted to do, or to the transportation. I always could look forward to returning to the attractive, and quiet apartment I was staying in at the end of the day or evening.
When it was time to return home, I walked down 2 blocks, and around the corner and across the street to catch the airport bus at the Westbahnhof for 8 Euros. It runs every hour on the half hour, 24 hours a day. Last time I gave a place a good review it was snatched up and never available again. Next time I am in Wien, I hope to bring my husband along, and stay here again. While I highly recommend this apartment, I hope this does not mean I won't be able to rent it again.
