Liked: The location is awesome - approximately a 3-4 minute walk to Westbahnof train station and metro. Next to a great street with restaurants and shops.

Liked: There are many facilities in the room, soundproof, it is in the heart of the city, yet in a quiet surrounding. I loved the fact that there was a kitchen belonging to our room (it was actually a flat what we rented) for a very good price. The atmosphere is lovely, the output is tasteful.

Disliked: Nothing in particular.

Liked: Separate kitchen, hall for each 2 rooms.

Disliked: Neighboors seemed like living there for some monthes. Not the friendliest atmosphere. Not the cleaniest place in Vienna. And definitely not for solo travellers - good if you book whole room. The worst hostel I've been to. Just little better than sleeping on train station. Wouldn't recomend to any other travellers.
