Viennabase19 - Wien

Yu Zhao

Das schlechteste Studentenwohnheim, in dem ich je gewohnt habe. Man soll am letzten Arbeitstag des Monats ausziehen, wie auf der Website angegeben. Und ich habe die Schlüssel am 29.03.2024 um 8:00 zurückgegeben. Aber das Personal konnte diese Regel plötzlich ändern und sagt, dass das letzte Auszugtag 28.03.2024 ist. Deswegen habe ich 50 Euro verloren. Sehr schlecht!!

If you hit a jackpot and get a room next to the technical maintenance of the dorm, you won't get much sleep during the week days. The dorm crew doesn't care...

If I could go back I would NEVER go to ViennaBase19! The communal kitchens are very dirty (I know this is due to those who use the kitchen but for example the fridges were really at the limit of hygiene, and when we asked to clean them as they are part of the communal spaces we were told that they would only done once but then we would have had to pay and/or keep them clean ourselves). Yes, because the dormitory will try in every way to ask you for more money than requested, for example by paying an initial fee of €60 for the "first accommodation fee" and at the end another €85 to clean a tiny 11m2 room! In fact, when I arrived at the dormitory in September the room was absolutely not sanitized, the toilet drain was completely brown and there was a lot of dust. Furthermore, they deducted my deposit of €830, another €35 in addition to the €85 cleaning fee because according to them the room needed to be repainted as it was stained (I simply attached some photos and leave an image to prove it). not to mention the fact that since the beginning of my stay there were already other stains on the walls, probably from the previous tenant. Another problem is the washing machines...6/7 washing machines for the entire dormitory! As long as they all work, because most of the time at least 1 or 2 are broken! The only positive note is the location in a very nice neighborhood and close to supermarkets and pharmacies (100 meters away).

Very nice and helpful team! Rooms are small but cozy. I recommend this dormitory :))

Mini apartment (single room) is 495€/month and shared apartment for 2 is slightly cheaper.
The supermarket Merkur is in the same building and tram and bus station (Konstanzigasse) are just in front of the building.( Bus 26A )

Key pickup should be done in Base19 as it is their main office.

Even an old dorm from the 70s in Innsbruck was a much better experience than this.

Excellent connectivity by public transport. Decent rooms. Well priced.

I would encourage you to NOT rent here or don't get fooled by perhaps lower prices, as the rent in the end will likely be higher than you'd expect. This is because of unconditioned charges that occur to almost all residents due to fautly smoke detectors installed in the hallways, that get triggered by normal cooking activity in the kitchen. If this happens, management sends a cold automatic email to all floor residents to clarify who cooked while it happened. The 153€ fine is either payed by the "culprit" or shared among residents of the floor. If unpayed, it simply comes off your deposit. Formal complaints don't go anywhere, and noone is informed about this system in place until it eventually happens. I informed staff that the contract needs to be updated, because the only fine discussed there is when the alarm is triggered due to smoking at non-smoking areas. My feeling is that they couldn't care less until the fine is payed which will be with the deposit.
Other than this craze, the place is OK, summer is a heatstroke, the cleanliness of the common area is a gamble, depending on who you live with. Expect fridges and ovens that weren't cleaned in years, bring boxes for your groceries or organise a clean up. It's all wild west.
