The room size was for one person, but they placed three single beds. The room was very small. Nice staff. Perfect parking with a charger. Clean rooms.

The room was so tiny, the staff didn't even make the bed properly. The bed was shoved up in a corner with no nightstands and one had to climb over the foot of the bed to get out. No hand towels. No water glasses. Stools instead of chairs. Best thing--only one night.

Family room is very compact - double bed against the wall and child bed in space at end of double so not much space. Ok for 1 night and what we needed for a quick pass through.

The smallest rooms ever, the second single bed came out of the only closet at the foot of the other single bed that were like sleeping on bricks. No where no put your clothes or anything else for that matter. No cable TV hooked up so no watching anything through your phone onto the tv in english Felt like it was being renovated and wasn't quite finished yet.

No AC when it was promised because the building apparently had no AC. Super disappointed because Vienna was very hot and all the chocolates we ha gotten in cities before melted

It was sufficient for our needs, but it wasn't located near anything else. It is "budget friendly" because everything is carte blanch. The breakfast is overpriced, but we were able to get coffee and a croissant for $3.50 each. Our room was too small to leave our luggage open, and the bed was pushed against a wall, so one had to climb over the other. The A/C seemed to turn off at night, and we woke up sweating. It was an easy walk to the train station, but there was nothing to do near the hotel. Most of the staff was very friendly, but not all.
