Visited Austria for 5 days. Great experience. Scene is active. Pricing up slightly.
Spent $80/day. Best part: ease of arranging.
Overall: 7.5/10. Would return.

I was there in January and prices were exactly as described.
Spent about $53/day all-in. Quality was above average.
My tip: midweek is golden hour.

This is outdated info IMO. Things have changed since the pandemic. Current prices are actually lower than what's described here.

Good info. I'd add that going during the week is much better — less crowded, better prices.

Adding my experience from 3 weeks ago.
The scene has changed a bit since pre-COVID. Biggest change: prices up 20%.

With respect, my experience was more mixed. But maybe I went at the wrong time.

I was there in January and prices were slightly higher.
Spent about $129/day all-in. Quality was excellent.
My tip: go early evening for best selection.
