For a true Urban Vienna experience you cannot improve on Birgit's apartment, especially as to its location. Walking out of the huge wooden doors of the building onto the pedestrian street where it is located, you step immediately into the exclusive shops and bars of the old part of the city. A fabulous grocery store is just steps away and so are all the sites that you came to Vienna to see. The beds, the linens the bathroom and the kitchen are top quality. We enjoyed trying to figure out how to use the washer dryer combination with its complicated directions, and were especially taken with the "fling" cycle of the dryer. When the promised hair dryer was not in the apartment, Brigit quickly made arrangements to have it delivered. We were very pleased with this visit to Vienna and cannot thank her enough for allowing us to stay in this fabulous apartment.
