Categories

Cleanliness
7.8
Mixed signals: some guests explicitly called the accommodation 'very clean' while others reported dust under the bed, ants, unpleasant smells and even spiders on the ceiling — overall slightly below the target.
Service
8
Mostly routine/easy check-in and helpfulness from some staff, but a few guests reported poor responsiveness (no fan provided, unfriendly reception) which lowers the score modestly.
Location
9.3
Consistently praised across reviews: central, well situated, close to transport, markets and restaurants — repeatedly described as a major strength.
Room Quality
8.5
Generally positive comments about layout, decor, windows and room climate; some negatives around noise from nearby venue, bed comfort for a few guests, and ventilation in street-level units.
Amenities
7.6
Several guests noted missing or insufficient items (towels, soap, cutlery), weak AC/ventilation or absent fans on hot weekends — amenities are adequate but occasionally lacking.
Value for Money
8.3
Not widely discussed explicitly; assigned the target rating as a neutral baseline ('Standard quality for this hotel tier').
Food and Beverage
8.3
Hotel F&B is not a prominent topic in the reviews; nearby restaurants are mentioned positively. Assigned target rating as baseline.
Overall Experience
8.6
Overall impression is positive with many guests saying they'd return or that everything was perfect, though a minority reported serious discomfort (heat, lack of ventilation, cleanliness/service issues).

Hält leider nicht, was es auf den ersten Blick verspricht.
Pros:

Super Lage, mit Restaurants, Shops und dem Augarten ums Eck. Gute Anbindung an die Öffis. Das Zimmer ist sehr groß, es liegt ruhig im Hinterhof des Gebäudes. Das Bett ist bequem und großzügig mit vielen Kissen bestückt.

Cons:

Leider kann man die Unterkunft gar nicht bis schlecht lüften - es war super Stickig und nachts zu heiß zum Schlafen, obwohl es nicht mal besonders heißes Wetter war. Zum Glück hatte ich einen Ventilator angefragt, mit dem ich morgens und abends von außen kühle, frische Luft ins Zimmer geblasen habe. Die Küche eignet sich nicht zum Kochen - das grindige Schneidbrett gehört dringend ausgetauscht, der Wasserkocher war kaputt. Die Dusche ist zwar groß, das Wasser läuft jedoch schlecht ab. Vor der Tür ist ein großer Kirschlorbeer, dessen Beeren überall am Boden liegen... sprich mal trägt den Fruchtbrei an den Schuhen (und den Kofferrollen) jedes Mal ins Zimmer rein. Hätte man ja mal fegen können.

Estudio reformado, acogedor y espacioso cerca del centro
Pros:

Muy cerca a pie del centro de Viena.
Estudio muy amplio, reformado y acogedor con patio.
Nos faltaron algunas cositas al llegar y nos facilitaron todo sin problema, buena atención.
Nos facilitaron la cama para el bebé muy amplia.

Cons:

Sin ventilador ni aire en plena ola de calor es complicado.
Se acumulaban muchas arañas en el techo y hormigas en la zona de la cocina.
Las vistas son al patio

The position. It is located in the centre of Vienna. We rarely took the metro and we were able to sightsee the city on foot.

No me gustó que nos enviaran a una ubicación diferente a la que sale en Booking, deberían informar en la plataforma. Además de que al estar en un piso bajo había hormigas.

Vreselijk raamloze ruimte
Pros:

Niks

Cons:

Bij aankomst was er verwarring over welke locatie voor ons bedoeld was. Uiteindelijk bleek het om een interessante, raamloze ruimte te gaan. Het is een soort hotelkamer op de begane grond, in een pand dat vroeger een winkel was. Je zit dus direct aan de straat, zonder ramen, omringd door gordijnen. De etalage aan de voorkant is namelijk de enige opening naar buiten.

Verder is er vrijwel geen isolatie, waardoor je alles van binnen en buiten hoort. Zelfs als je niest, is dat buiten goed te horen. Dat betekent dus ook geen frisse lucht en geen zonlicht, want anders kan iedereen van buiten naar binnen kijken.

Het personeel aan de telefoon was erg onbeleefd. Daarentegen waren de medewerkers op kantoor wel beleefd en aanspreekbaar. Zij gaven aan dat je maar één kans hebt om te zien welke locatie je boekt. Dat betekent dat je eigenlijk moet raden uit de vele foto's wat je uiteindelijk krijgt.

Wenen is te mooi en het weer is te heerlijk om opgesloten te zitten in een accommodatie zoals deze. Ik zou daarom aanraden om iets leukers te zoeken.

Pros:

Great Location Close to the Center, Spacious Room
We had a wonderful stay in this room. The location is excellent, just a short distance from the center, making it easy to reach everything on foot. The hosts were extremely responsive — every request we had was answered right away.
The room was spacious and comfortable, with a really large bathroom, which made a big difference for us. There were no stairs to deal with, which was a huge plus since we had brought my elderly parents along, and they truly appreciated the accessibility and comfort.
Overall, a highly recommended choice for anyone looking for a place close to the center that's spacious and easy to navigate — especially great for families traveling with older relatives.

Idealer Aufenthalt für Wien auf den Spuren von Robert Seethalers Roman Café ohne Namen.
Pros:

Ich habe das Karmeliterviertel so gefunden, wie ich es gesucht habe. Und die Idee, ehemalige Ladengeschäfte als Unterkünfte umzufunktionieren, ist gut umgesetzt. Sehr angenehm war die Ruhe in der Unterkunft. Und die Lüftung/Klimaanlage funktionierte so gut, dass wir Fenster nicht vermisst haben.

Cons:

Wie fast immer: zu wenig Ablagemöglichkeiten und Haken. Nur eine Sitzgelegenheit für zwei Personen. Der komplizierte Preis- Check-in war für uns nicht zu bewältigen. Aber man konnte noch einen echten Menschen anrufen… und ein Wienplan zum Mitnehmen wäre nett gewesen.

Mi sarei aspettato tanto meglio
Pros:

La posizione

Cons:

Come prima cosa ci ha portato nel posto sbagliato per prendere le chiavi perché era nella facciata dopo.
Appena entrato si sentiva puzza di vecchio, l acqua calda non andava, cosa che è stata risolta dopo. L'aria condizionata non andava, probabilmente perché i filtri erano tanto sporchi di polvere, come del resto la maggior parte dell' appartamento. Sporco. La tavoletta del wc era rotta, la ventola per togliere l' umidità della stanza non funzionava.
Non potevamo fare girare aria dalle finestre perché all' esterno sono coperte da un vetro, abbiamo dovuto tenere aperta la porta, ma ovviamente solo quando eravamo a casa.
La lavastoviglie puzzava tremendamente e il lavandino della cucina era sporco.
Il frigo funziona bene tranne per il freezer che ha la porticina rotta.
In 3 notti che siamo stati non ci sono state cambiate né coperte né asciugamani e per circa 100 euro a notte per 2, pensavo di sì.
