The Rooms Apartments

Stunning city with great public transport, loved the markets and the history

I have been coming to this appartment for the last 3-4 years and I absolutely love it. Eva has decorated the appartment with great care and style. It's set within an authentic tenement building which has great character and you instantly feel at home. It is right beside a ubahn station so 10-15 mins and you are in the city centre and it's incredibly close to the UN buildings if you have meetings there.

Map on Hotels.com had the apartment near Stephanplatz .... missed the words that said location may vary .... 2 miles away in grey residential area

I'm unclear if more than one apartment is available but the one we stayed in was next to the Prater - not next to the catherdral as a photo implies. We were happy with the location (right next to the park and the fair, good public transport into centre) but it may be a surprise if you are expecting central location. Apartment is in an area which is obviously under going improvement. We liked the neighbourhood and proximity to park. Entrance way is first into a communal stairwell (a little worn) and then a private front door. Lounge is large and comfortable, kitchen and bathroom are small but perfectly adequate. Bedroom is a little odd as size of bed (kingsize) means there is little room for anything else. We're not large and we were squeezing around the side of bed. Bed itself is not terribly comfortable and quite high off the floor - I'm smallest at 5' 8 and hopping onto the bed was required! Overall we had fairly fixed feelings about the apartment - we liked the location, lounge and bedroom/kitchen were fine, but didn't love it (maybe due to odd bedroom). Perfectly fine though. Worth noting that it generally took several days for a response from owner via hotels.com messaging - might be worth factoring this in if you are travelling with intermittent internet access. Note, we did get a response, good info pack in apartment and contact number in apartment in case of issues.

My room was booked for 3 people but was surprised that the bedding comprised of a double bed and a single sofa bed. Needed 3 separate beds which was not an option they could provide
