The hotel had a charming location, very close to the bustling shopping street, and with convenient access to the metro. Despite the room size being a bit small, it was well-appointed with thoughtful touches like a fruit plate and sparkling wine. The service, though a bit lacking in local knowledge, was friendly and accommodating. Dining was satisfactory with a good variety of choices, even though some dishes were overpriced. Despite the older building, the facilities were well-maintained. Great value for the money overall, especially with a nearby market for convenience.

The hotel is conveniently located close to a major shopping street, offering a good mix of shops and bars. The rooms are comfortable with a lovely bathroom and a very comfy bed. However, the lack of natural light in my room facing the internal square made it a bit gloomy. The service from the staff was exceptional, friendly, and very helpful, particularly with local transport tips. The dining experience was decent, though not having a wide range of options was a downside. The hotel's facilities were satisfactory, but could use some improvements.

My stay at the hotel was truly delightful! The room I had was much better than the ordinary double room; it was spacious with a lovely view from the window and had a nice room setup. However, the room was a bit shabby with an old, stained carpet and outdated 1980's furniture that took up most of the limited space. On the bright side, it was very clean and modern, exactly as I like, and the location in the heart of Vienna was just perfect, especially with a bath as I had requested.

The location was excellent for exploring the city center without breaking the bank. It is very close to public transportation and surrounded by great shopping and dining options. The only downside was that it felt a bit crowded at times due to its size.

The hotel's location is excellent, close to the subway and in the heart of the city. The rooms are comfortable but suffer from a musty scent and dark interiors. The service is friendly but had some minor issues. The dining experience is above average but a bit overpriced. Overall, a good value for money with a few drawbacks.

My stay at the hotel was a mix of ups and downs. The first room I got had two narrow and uncomfortable beds, a small space with a tiny bathroom, and a low slanting attic ceiling. However, the next day, I was moved to a much better room that was just as good and comfortable as I expected. The equipment was in very good condition, and I appreciated the complimentary coffee, tea, juices, and assortment of breakfast items. Plus, the windows faced a lovely inner courtyard where three beautiful cats lived.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were tiny, located at the back of the building, and felt basic compared to the 'boutique' image portrayed on the website. However, the location was superb, surrounded by cafes and shops, just off the main shopping street, and within walking distance of attractions. The service was friendly but somewhat distant, with standout moments from the breakfast lady. The dining options were decent but limited. Despite some drawbacks, the hotel offers good value for money.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms, though clean, comfortable, and quiet, were a bit small and lacked air conditioning, making sleep challenging. The service was a hit or miss, ranging from aloof to exceptionally helpful, particularly in recommending dining options. The location, just off Mariahilferstraße, was convenient with easy access to the subway, shops, and key attractions. Dining options were varied but somewhat crowded. The facilities were satisfactory overall.

The hotel seemed a bit different from what I expected based on the website, but it had some nice features like a mini-fridge and safe in the room. However, the room felt a bit cramped. The service was helpful and friendly, though I felt a bit clueless about the city's happenings. The hotel's location was great, near the Mariahilfer Straße shopping street with easy access to transportation. The dining was satisfactory, and the breakfast offered typical options like bread, ham, cheese, boiled eggs, and good coffee. The facilities were adequate.
