Positive Reviews
positive:
Terrific location near the heart of the city
While guests did mention that the attractions in Vienna
are quite spread out, they were very happy being near the centre of the city.
It was reported that there was a U-Bahn station just steps away and that it was
close to some of the city’s best shopping, bars and of course the famous cafes.
positive:
Friendly and informative hosts
Guests were very happy with the service they received from the hosts. They were said to be friendly and willing and able to provide great practical information regarding the city as well as some excellent recommendations
positive:
Very quite location
Despite being within walking distance of the centre, several guests remarked that the apartment was actually in a lovely quiet area. There really weren’t any complaints about street noise to speak of.
Negative Reviews
negative:
Some issues with getting the keys
There are no staff members working at the building permanently and guests must arrange to get the keys from the hosts directly. While this process usually worked smoothly, a solid minority of guests experienced delays and other issues, which made for a frustrating start to their stay.
negative:
The steep cleaning fee
A number of guests mentioned that they felt the cleaning fee charged here was quite high. Especially those staying for just a couple of days mentioned that it really added to their accommodation costs, since the fee was the same irrespective if how long a guest stayed.
negative:
Kitchen could be better equipped
Guests weren’t completely satisfied with the way the kitchen was equipped, saying it lacked some pretty basic equipment, like a toaster for example, as well as having limited crockery, cutlery and so on.
