Eine Toilette, die nur durch einen Vorhang vom Zimmer/ Kueche getrennt ist, entspricht nicht dem Standard.

A very nice accomondation, in a very good location (10 minutes from the centrum) with good transport (both day and night). The owners were very nice also. It was quite cold in the room, though. But it is the only bad thing I can say about the place. I'd recomend it for everyone!

Host provided excellent directions to Schonnen Schloss - easy walk from guesthouse. Guesthouse is about 10 mins away by metro from city, metro & supermarkets located close by. Room was spacious, decor dated. Shower was small, door didn't close properly, everything was clean.

Good little quaint guesthouse. If you're used to hotels and guesthouses, it may not seem that good. But really it has everything you need. Very good value.

It's a bit far from the action but easily accessable from public transport. Old building and furnishings but decent. Only one cold shower out of two nights! Quiet.

Welcome to a family of five was excellent, we were given maps and directions. It helped a lot to make our short stay in Vienna a pleasure. Nearness to Schönbrunn and the underground is positive. Our room was almost a complete appartment, with all we needed to eat breakfast, to keep our food cool... more Welcome to a family of five was excellent, we were given maps and directions.

Good when you are staying for 2 or 3 days. When you want to enjoy city centre choose another, is a bit far from centre, but walkable. Clean, good stuff. Recommend!

No fresh bedsheets and towels. The Design is a mix of old (not nice) furniture.

We enjoyed our stay here. The guesthouse is a very short walk to the underground station so travelling around was no problem. The room itself was kooky, with frog statues, and Christmas wreaths in the hall! The en suite was strange, given that the 'wall' was actually a red curtain!

Interesting place to stay. The rooms are very old fashioned and unique. Our first night we stayed in a room that had an attached bathroom, but the door to it was one of the closet doors. The second night, our shower was in the kitchen! The hosts were very kind. I wish it had WiFi.

Very, very happy with the Elisabeth Guesthouse. We wanted a low-key place (we had a group of five) and we definitely got it. When we got there, we were told that because the guesthouse wasn't full that we were automatically upgraded to a room with an ensuite bathroom! Very, very nice people,... more Very, very happy with the Elisabeth Guesthouse. We wanted a low-key place (we had a group of five) and we definitely got it.

Very, very nice people, clean and comfortable facilities and they even stored our luggage after we'd checked out! One piece of advice to other travelers -- don't walk towards the neon lights at the end of the street during the night...there were a lot of prostitutes down there and it's not the best place. No complaints about the guesthouse and I would highly recommend it!close

shower was in the middle of the rather grubby kitchen, with only a curtain between you and people cooking. Ancient bed linen and towels which didn't look very clean. Whole place had a nasty damp smell.

The rooms are Vienesse apartments in an older building, and were excellent. The double ensuite had a small kitchen in room (only a stove, but it works).

The owner was very nice and helpful, and she also comes by and cleans up the rooms daily. The hostel is 3 minutes walk from the metro stop, and the U3 line it is on takes you directly to all the old town sights.close

Clean, secure and quiet place. No luxury. Good location - 10 minutes to the center by metro. Beautiful birds singing in early morning. Excellent for rest after tired sightseeing. Entertainments aren't offered. Special thanks to the staff, we enjoyed our stay quite much.

Very spacious, clean, quiet and safe location. Just block and a half from metro U3, which makes it very easy to get around. Would definitely stay there again. Lots of shops, markets and caffes around, very convinient.

EVERYTHING you need. It's like renting an apartment. It has private bedroom, kitchen and shower (shared toilet). You'll love it. A bit of a hike from city centre, though - get a day pass for the transit.

The room and building had an old fashioned feel about it that gave it character. The couple that run the place were so friendly and helpful. If you want a quiet nights sleep, this is the place to stay..

Clean, quiet, cheap parking (or even free parking if you're willing to park a few blocks away) Away from downtown but it doesn't really matter with Vienna's excellent subway network.

As a plus the rooms are large and have a lot of natural light and the hostel itself is located in an old building in a quiet part of the town, very close to the U3 metro. On the other hand, the boiler system is not working properly so you either get burn or frozen while taking a shower.
