Most guests really liked the location of the Praterstern, describing it as very central, but more importantly as being close to Praterstern station, from where they could catch a tram or train to anywhere in Vienna. Cash is (the only) king
Several guests mentioned that, despite the central location, they didn't really experience a lot of noise from outside since the hotel is on a relatively quiet side street.
Though not mentioned by many guests, the ones who did were certainly very enthusiastic about it. They seemed to be keen cyclists and were pleased that they could rent a bike right downstairs with a minimum of fuss.
Several guests point out that the hotel only accepts cash on the premises. Many found this quite peculiar, especially when settling a bill for a longer stay, which would require quite large amounts of cash to be carried around - something many were reluctant to do.
This was the question many guest were asking themselves and hotel staff. Considering the central part connectivity pays in peoples lives nowadays, many guest simply don't accept that Wi-Fi could attract an additional fee and believed it should have been included in the room rate. In their mind it was like being asked to pay to have a bed in their room, rather the sleeping on the floor.
It seems most guests did not believe they received good value if paying the extra charge for breakfast. It may be better to simply take breakfast at a local café.
