Good to know
This is our home, so it's furnished as a real lived-in apartment. We're looking for a tenant who'll treat it the same way.
No pets, no smoking inside (smoking on the terrace is fine).
We're available by message throughout your stay, and a trusted contact in Vienna can stop by in person if anything comes up.
