A very good hotel in close proximity to old town, trams and underground. Rooms /hotel are modern and well maintained. Good value for money. Would definitely stay again

It is hard to find a reasonable priced hotel in Vienna. If you want to stay in the old city, you have to pay double the price of this hotel or more. This hotel is near Tram line # 2 about 5 minutes away. You can buy ticket online so this location is a compromise between price and location. You pay a less in return for staying a bit away from the center of the city across the river. The hotel is situated in a jewish neighborhood. I arrived on Friday and orthodox jews were out in force making me felt like I was in Jerusalem or New Year but there were also a mix of women wearing veils.  The hotel breakfast is expensive but in the room free coffee and tea were available free of charge. It has a small desk . The best is on the first floor there is a microwave oven . I used it everyday . I love it. I stayed in Room 306 and my room shared a wall with the elevator shaft. I requested a room farthest away from the elevator when I reserved it but on arrival , the staff just said ‘ we didn’t receive any complains from anyone. If you have issue, we will try to change your room ‘ which I didn’t really like the answer because everyone has different tolerance for noise. Although I have to admit that the room has no noise from the elevator. It was in general fairly quiet.   The negative maybe is I hear trams passing by every few minutes.  It is not annoyingly loud but noticeable so you don’t focus on your mind on the noise, you will be fine.  Also there is only one elevator. The other end of the building also has  The staff was very nice. I think this is a decent hotel but I like the one that I stayed in right before which offered breakfast , much closer to the city center without crossing the river and more restaurants  choices as it is very close to the pedestrian zone which has a Billa Market. ( Can I mention that the name of the other  hotel is called Jaz in the City ?)
