Visited Austria for 5 days. Solid experience. Scene is as described. Pricing excellent value.
Spent $105/day. Best part: ease of arranging.
Overall: 8/10. Exceeded expectations.
AMA.

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

Quick question — how was the Uber availability?

I'd also recommend downloading Maps.me before you go. Essential.

Hmm, I had a different experience. Prices were lower when I went. Maybe timing matters.

Did you use dating apps or find girls at clubs?
