I should start by saying that Max's place is even more wonderful than the pictures are able to show. The bed is a lagoon of down duvets, the skylights above it are a star scape to sleep by and a sunbeam to wake you — yes, there are shades for those who wish to sleep in — and the little terrace is perfect for your morning coffee. It's only a bit more than two blocks from the subway, and up the street there are plenty of cafés, pubs and even a fancy restaurant or three. The neighborhood is safe and has the extra draw of some very cool shops, leaning to the artsy side. Though I'm sure there's some street traffic in the day, protected from the street facing into a wide courtyard, Max's place is a little haven looking out over the rooftops. Don't worry, there's a lift to get you and your luggage up to the 6th floor. Max was a delightful host, kept in touch from booking through to arrival — I was traveling for work — and was just incredibly welcoming when I did land on his doorstep. I cannot recommend his place highly enough, for all I'm tempted to keep it as my own little secret in Vienna. Thank you Max for making my first brief visit to your city so wonderful!
