It's all true! All the great reviews about the place, about Loraine, all of it. This place is completely fabulous. The only downside (spoiler: it's not really a downside) is that it's such a peaceful haven that you might not be as motivated to get outside and do touristy things. For walkers, location is perfect for walking into the city center. I took public transportation from the airport, which was super easy, but the rest of the time I walked everywhere. The nearby Volksoper is a delightful venue, which might get overlooked if you were staying elsewhere, so book a performance there since it's so close by. If I had a chance to stay longer I would have definitely hopped out of the city to visit some wine regions as Loraine recommends in her guide. I would definitely book here again. In fact, I would rent this full time if I could. It's great.
