7brunnen Hostel Beds & Rooms

Easy self-check-in, very basic room with a table, chair and okay bed. The rooms are part of a standard Viennese apartment, broken down to separate rooms, there is also a kitchenette with a few dishes available - which is convenient for longer stays perhaps. The codes for access worked well. This was luckily a room with a window to the street (beware of the budget one with a window to the corridor that everyone entering/existing the apartment passes by. Clean spacious showers.

As I visited in the summer, the room was too warm. Opening the window meant street noise. The shading of the light with curtain did not work so well. Instruction not to use showers between 23 and 7 were nice from the perspective of night silence, but the instruction to use the ground floor shower instead (for late arrivals / early departures) was confusing, as those showers had the same instruction not to use it too late or too early. The hotel location is safe and in the middle of a relatively peaceful district, but quite some walk from Wien Meidling station (with heavy luggage) unless one waits for the nearby bus. Wi-fi worked well.

The property was well kept and very clean. All the facilities were functional and well laid out in the apartments.

Only a small thing about the location being a little bit out of town but it is serviced by a metro only a few blocks away.

The bed and pillow are good n we have a very good sleep. The staff is helpful and friendly.

Desk in the room was big and useful, the room was spacious.

I stayed in the queen bed solo room, the bed was one of the least comfortable beds I've ever slept on. 110% firm. Hurt my back. The pillow provided was maybe one inch thick. The carpet, when it got wet from my post-shower footsteps, smelled very bad. The common area had a bad smell to it, and the shower had mildew on the upper parts of the wall and ceiling. I stayed in similarly priced hostels in Prague and Berlin and they were much more comfortable and clean. The lighting was florescent, white/green LED, which lended to a yucky atmosphere.
