my MOjO vie

Top choice in Vienna


An old-fashioned cage lift rattles up to these design-focused backpacker digs. Everything you could wish for is here – well-equipped dorms with two power points per bed, a self-catering kitchen, tablets for surfing, guidebooks for browsing and musical instruments for your own jam session. There's no air-con but fans are available in summer.
