Room was great, clean, good location, etc. Would have been nice to have some of the basic cooking things on hand/more coffee/coffee refreshed.

The place was clean and spacious. It was a bit of a walk to the metro station. The place had a beautiful view of the river, however it was not easily accessible to shops, restaurants, or transportation.

Perfect
Apartment was exactly as we thought and really good. We’re planning a new trip in may and will try to book the same! Easy with just the codes to the apartment when we were more people so we didn’t have to share a key. We could now just go as we wanted.
Recommend!

How nice apartment.
The accomodation was very nice but the tax and service fee are more than basic accomodation fee. So, I confused when I booked this apartment. BY the way, it was clean and comfort.

Perfect for families
This was our first trip to Vienna and our stay was only four nights, so we don't have a lot of experience with the city. That said, URBI was a fabulous place to stay: Large enough to make our family comfortable, clean and well-appointed kitchen, bright and clean throughout, comfortable beds, easy access to public transportation, and frankly a great value. Cons: Offsite parking was close enough, but not particularly easy to navigate with an after-dark arrival. Overall: Would seek out again in a future trip to Vienna.

Decent but wouldn’t go back
Stay was decent. They don’t tell you that you have to pay for laundry which isn’t something you want to do when you’re already paying a few hundred a night for the stay. They also don’t tell you that the property is located directly above a train line that runs throughout the day and night. You can feel the vibrations which isn’t ideal, especially since one night the train ran until midnight. The location is okay.

Rummet var bra och välstädat. Problem med varmvattenberedaren till duschen. Trots påminnelse ingen lösning. En madrass alltför mjuk.

Nettes Appartement mit 2 getrennten Schlafzimmern
Sehr nettes Appartement mit 2 räumlich getrennten Schlafzimmern. Küche sauber und in sehr gutem Zustand - genügend Geschirr und Gläser vorhanden.
Insgesamt vielleicht aufgrund der Lage laut, aber man kann durch die Klimaanlage die Fenstern geschlossen halten.

숙소 자체는 훌륭했으나 위치가 단점입니다. 아파트는 크기도 컸고, 마루바닥으로 청결하게 유지되고 있습니다. 도나우강도 바로 뒤편에 있습니다. 트램 역과 도보로 10분내외로 뚜벅이 여행에게 도심 이동은 괜찮았습니다. 다만 철길 근처에 있는지 새벽에 기차 소리가 크게 들리며, 도로 변 외곽 지역에 있어서 눈 비오는 날씨에 접근성이 매우 떨어졌습니다. 위치가 외져서 눈오는 날 캐리어를 끌고 이동하느라 매우 고생했습니다ㅠㅠ 무인으로 운영되며 근처 제설이 되지 않습니다. 겨울에 갈 때에는 참고하세요.

Das Zimmer war in Ordnung, allerdings ist es doch recht laut, wenn man die Fenster offen lassen möchte. Die Betten sind sehr weich, was wir nicht gewöhnt waren. Eine Anbindung an den öffentlichen Personennahverkehr ist unweit vom Hotel entfernt und sehr gut zu erreichen. Einkaufsmöglichkeiten gibt es ebenso relativ nah.

Außer die Parkmöglichkeiten war alles sehr schön!!!
Det var super fint og lå rigtig godt i forhold til offentlig transport. Dog var køkkenet og redskaberne ikke helt rengjorte efter sidste brug, men dette fikses nemt med en omgang opvask. Sengene var utroligt behagelige og det var rart med spisebord hvor der var plads til alle. Derudover var badeværelset super fint.

Appartamento eccellente
Ottimo appartamento di design in zona periferica ma facilmente raggiungibile con la metro. Completamente arredato, due camere da letto, cucina e sala TV.
