How to cut tax by investing in spouse's name
December 27, 2010
By Sudhir Kaushik Financial planners contend that couples should ideally combine their finances.

However, the taxman has set limits to this joining of the finances of the two spouses. He has no problems if one spouse gives money to the other. After all, it's...

Evading tax evasion
January 26, 2008
Carla Marchese
Tax evasion is a global scourge. The "black" economy has, by some estimates, reached 10% of GDP in advanced countries and can top 70% in developing countries. And it is getting worse. Tax evasion is usually confronted in two ways: audits and harsh sanctions. But, as the rising tide of tax evasion suggests, these mechanisms amount only to a cat game of and mouse problem — and the mice, it seems, are winning. As tax evasion becomes more pervasive, whole networks to help hide...

Outrage as Israel bombs UN
Aid workers allege use of banned white phosphorus as Hamas security leader dies in bombing raid on house
Israeli tanks thrust deep inside Gaza City last night as ferocious fighting raged in dense residential areas with terrified families fleeing along streets echoing with gunfire, although many others were trapped in their homes.
Israeli shelling set fire to the UN headquarters, a hospital, a school and a building used by the media, leading to widespread international protests and renewed calls for a ceasefire in the conflict which has so far cost 1,073 Palestinian and 13 Israeli lives. A senior Hamas leader, the Interior Minister Said Seyyam who was responsible for thousands of security agents, was killed in an Israeli raid which flattened his brother's home.
Three members of UN staff were injured when three Israeli shells hit the headquarters, setting it on fire. Thousands of tonnes of desperately needed food and humanitarian supplies were destroyed and about 700 refugees given shelter in the building had to be evacuated. UN officials said the shells were white phosphorus, believed to have been responsible for burns suffered by some Palestinian civilians.
The UN secretary general, Ban Ki-moon, on a peace mission to the region, said: "I conveyed my strong protest and outrage to the Defence Minister and Foreign Minister and demanded a full explanation."
The Israeli Prime Minister, Ehud Olmert, apologised for the shelling but claimed Hamas fighters had opened fire from the centre. "It is absolutely true that we were attacked from that place, but the consequences are very sad and we apologise for it," he said. "I don't think it should have happened and I'm very sorry."
John Ging, the director of operations for the UN relief agency, UNRWA, in Gaza described the Israeli claim about a Hamas presence as "nonsense". He added: "It's a total disaster for us." Mr Ging said the UN had warned the Israelis the compound was in danger from shelling that had begun overnight, and provided them with GPS co-ordinates to prevent an attack.
The Al-Quds hospital was also hit by shellfire when Israeli tanks moved further into the city. A tower housing the Reuters agency and other media outlets was also hit. The International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies said the damage caused to the Al Quds hospital is "completely and utterly unacceptable based on every known standard of international humanitarian law".
The hospital is in the Tal Hawa district, a packed residential area. Streams of people fled from the fighting, carrying what belongings they could on foot, by car, and, in some cases wheelbarrows after homes were demolished and set ablaze. Mahmud Tejan Hussein drove away with seven members of his family. "Bullets started hitting our house and I decided that we must get away from here. There are Israeli tanks in the area now and we might get blocked off if we wait. But I do not know where we are going to go. We wanted to go to the UN office, but that has been attacked. Wherever we go, the fighting will follow us."
Musah Mohammed, 36, who stayed at his home in an apartment block, said: "We cannot go out. There is shooting in the street. My mother is ill and she is old; we cannot leave her here. People are shouting to each other from balconies crying that they need help. We have no electricity and very little food and water. We are very afraid; we do not know what will happen next." It was unclear whether the escalation was a final push before a ceasefire, as peace talks continued yesterday in Cairo where Israel's chief negotiator Amos Gilad arrived to hear the Hamas response to an Egyptian initiative.
Mark Regev, the spokesman for the Israeli Prime Minister, said a "momentum" was building up on the talks. "Ultimately, we want to see a long-term sustainable quiet in the south, a quiet that's going to be based on the total absence of all hostile fire from Gaza into Israel, and an internationally supported mechanism that will prevent Hamas from rearming," he said.
US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice told Mr Olmert by phone that Washington would sign an agreement on measures to stop Hamas from rearming after a ceasefire. The Egyptian proposals call for an immediate ceasefire, resumption of humanitarian aid, an Israeli pullout and the reopening of the border between Israel and Gaza under international supervision.

U.S. goes 'bananas'
Sometime before March 3 import tariffs on those cartons will increase from 1.7% to 100%. Folding cartons are one of 16 categories of imports from the European Union whose tariffs are being boosted to 100%. This is being done in retaliation for European Union import restrictions on bananas from the U.S. In 1997 $25 million in folding cartons came into the U.S. from Europe according to Gary Stanley forest industry product specialist at the U.S. Dept. of Commerce. Germany was the leading exporter here with $9.5 million. Finland was second at $3.6 million. Stanley says for 1998 up through October folding carton imports from the EU were up about 10%. Marla Donahue president of the Paperboard Packaging Council says those EU imports are less than 1% of the folding cartons sold in the U.S. So the 100% tariff won't have a big effect here except on those companies that purchase them now. If the European folding cartons are specialty items the U.S. buyer may have trouble finding an alternate supplier. But if they are garden-variety folding cartons finding a U.S. vendor shouldn't be a big problem. Charlene Barshefsky the U.S. trade representative explains that the U.S. acted to increase the tariffs only after the EU declined to accept World Trade Organization rulings stating that EU import restrictions against bananas from the U.S. and some Latin American countries were illegal. Because the Netherlands and Denmark voted against EU banana import restrictions imports to the U.S. from those two countries will not face higher tariffs.

Early in "The Rundown,"The Rock is entering a nightclub to confront some tough guys, and he passes Arnold Schwarz-enegger on the way out. "Have a good time," Arnold says. It's like he's passing the torch. Whether The Rock will rival Schwarzenegger's long run as an action hero is hard to say -- but on the basis of "The Rundown," he has a good chance. I liked him in his first starring role, "The Scorpion King" (2002), but only up to a point; "On the basis of this movie," I wrote, "he can definitely star in movies like this." That's also true on the basis of "The Rundown" -- but it's a much better movie, and he has more to do.
He plays a man named Beck, a "retrieval expert" who in the early scene is trying to retrieve a bad debt from an NFL quarterback. He does, beating up the entire defensive line in the process. Then his boss sends him on another mission -- to bring back his son, who is somewhere in the Amazon. The moment I heard "Amazon," I perked up, because I'm getting tired of action movies shot entirely within Los Angeles County. Hawaii doubles for South America in the movie, and does a great job of it, apparently aided at times by computer effects; and the jungle locations give the film a texture and beauty that underlines the outsized characters.
Beck's mission takes him to a town named El Dorado, run by the evil Hatcher (Christopher Walken, whose first appearance, as usual, cheers up the audience). Beck's quarry is Travis Walker, a feckless fortune hunter played by Seann William Scott, who, yes, is the same Seann William Scott who plays Stifler in the "American Pie" series. Here he has the same cocky in-your-face personality, has add-ed a beard, and is once again a natural comic actor.
So is The Rock, within the limits set by his character (there is some kind of a sliding scale in action pictures in which the star can be funny up to a point, but the second banana can go beyond that point). I liked, for example, Beck's call to his boss before beating up half the NFL team: He doesn't want to pound on them because "They may have a chance to repeat." Just about the first person Beck meets in El Dorado is the bartender, Mariana, played by Rosario Dawson, who later sees a lot of action and is convincing in it, reminding me a little of Linda Hamilton in "The Terminator." "Have more beautiful lips ever been photographed?" I asked in my review of her performance in "Chelsea Walls." On the basis of her performance here, I suggest that the answer is "no." Walken's character runs El Dorado as the kind of company town where all your wages go right back into the pocket of the boss (you have to rent your shovel by the day). Dawson's character doesn't like this, but I will not reveal more. Scott's character wants to find and steal a priceless Indian relic that will free the Indians in some unspecified way, but not if he sells it on eBay first. The Rock's character gets in the middle.
It goes without saying that Beck and Travis have to get lost in the jungle at some point, but how to arrange this? The film is admirably direct: Beck causes a Jeep to crash, and he and Travis roll down a hillside that is about nine miles long. I was reminded of the similar scene in "Romancing the Stone," and indeed the two movies have a similar comic spirit. Once in the jungle they have all sorts of harrowing adventures, and I enjoyed it that real things were happening, that we were not simply looking at shoot-outs and chases, but at intriguing and daring enterprise.
So determined is the film to avoid shoot-outs on autopilot that Beck makes it a point not to use firearms. "Guns take me to a place I don't want to go," he says. When the chips are down and the going is very heavy, however, he reconsiders. There's a lurid, overheated montage showing closeups of guns and ammo and closeups of The Rock's eyes, and the pressure to pick up a gun builds and builds until it's like the drunk in "The Lost Weekend" contemplating falling off the wagon.
Christopher Walken has a specialty these days: He walks onscreen and delivers a febrile monologue that seems to come from some steamy bog in his brain. In "Poolhall Junkies," he had a riff about the law of the wild. In "Gigli" he wondered if aliens had kidnapped the judge's brother. Here he tells a torturous parable about the Tooth Fairy, which the locals have a lot of trouble understanding. He also has a hat that reminds me of the hat rule: Hero wears normal hat, sidekick wears funny hat, villain wears ugly hat. The movie was directed by Peter Berg, the actor, whose first directorial job was "Very Bad Things" (1998), a movie I thought was a very bad thing. Since I am quoting my old reviews today, let it be noted that I wrote in my review of that one: "Berg shows that he can direct a good movie, even if he hasn't." Now he has.

'Loud In Accra' is a musical concert launched in the year 2000 with a mission to create positive awareness with quality music and comedy. It's objective is to identify, develop and promote African, especially Ghanaian musicians, comedians and the entertainment industry.
For whatever reasons, the concert that many saw once as one stop show for both Ghanaians and Nigerians to converge at one place and entertain their various fans took a break.
With this year being an election year, the event has been re-launched and dubbed 'Loud In Accra Peace Concert' which according to the organisers, will be used to champion and advocate for peace during the upcoming elections in December.
The organiser, EZ Promotion in collaboration with YFM will bring back a rejuvenated and boosted 'Loud In Accra' pre club to club party. They party is expected to take place at some selected high profiled night clubs in Accra after which the final event will kick off at the Dome of the Accra International Conference Centre on September 21st, 2012.
The organisers have hinted that, they are currently in talks with some of the huge musicians on the African continent to grace the occasion to help Ghanaian artistes to perform in other to supplement in the pursuit for consolidated and peaceful election in Ghana.
At each club, high profile selected musicians will pass through to entertain patrons and also have photo shoot segments with available fans.
During the party, high profile selected artiste will be passing through to give varieties of clubbing experience live performances and photo shoot with their fans as well.
The tour went to Club Invasion last Saturday and had artistes such as Buk Bak, Guru, D Cryme, Bino, Kesee, Tinny and others passing through.
The next venue would be the Aphrodisiac Night Club inside Dzorwulu slated for July 7th. Barcadies Night Club in Tema party is on the 21st July. Vienna City at Circle would after follow after.

Wikimedia CommonsEvery day thousands and thousands of transactions are done between investors around the world, but lets face it, most of them will never be remembered.
For that reason, among others, the trades that do become a part of history have to be incredibly epic.
And it can't just be that they netted someone an incredible amount of money, great trades are even more than that.
A really great trade is something that happens when a trader uses all their cunning and intuition to find just the right moment to strike — sometimes when everyone else thinks they're out of their mind.
Think about it: John Paulson shorted the U.S. housing market when almost everyone else on Wall Street was bullish. Jim Chanos held on to his Enron short even as the stock was shooting up.
That takes intelligence, conviction, and grit.
Business Insider has compiled a list of traders throughout history who've used all those qualities to execute some of the greatest trades of all time.
Get inspired.
They knew when to strike.

Who bought suspect salmon? Costco makes 247,000 calls
- Jeanne Lang Jones
- Staff Writer- Puget Sound Business Journal
- Email | Twitter
When Costco Wholesale Corp. found out earlier this month that some of its smoked salmon might be contaminated, the discount chain made phone calls to alert nearly a quarter-million people who had bought the delicacy.
The merchant's pinpoint response shows the increasing role technology is playing in food safety and retailing.
In the late 1990s, Costco customers typically got a letter informing them about possibly harmful products; now the retailer works with a firm that makes automated phone calls, said Craig Wilson, Costco's vice president of quality assurance and food safety.
"We can do up to 1.4 million calls per hour," Wilson said.
Costco was contacted Oct. 1 about a potential safety issue in two salmon products by Dutch seafood exporter Foppen. Foppen's smoked salmon was suspected of being the source of a salmonella strain that sickened 200 people in the Netherlands and 85 in the United States.
Issaquah-based Costco pulled the products and alerted customers, but both products later were cleared by the Dutch government and the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Wilson nonetheless decided to destroy items that had been made at a Foppen facility that was implicated in the outbreak.
One reason Costco was able to contact so many customers so quickly about the recall is that it tracks every item each member buys and stores that data for what Wilson describes as "a very long time."
The information is gathered when the cashier scans the customer's membership card and rings up the purchases. Supermarket loyalty cards work much the same way.
Wilson isn't sure how much it costs Costco to manage all that data, but he said, "Nobody has ever brought up cost to me as an issue."

Racing: Pike taking Cheltenham bait
Tuesday 11 November 1997
She became only the second woman to complete the course in the Grand National when guiding Fiddlers Pike into fifth place in the 1994 renewal.
Despite repeated attempts at retirement neither Mrs Henderson nor her stable star are ready to call it a day.
"Provided I get my amateur jockeys' permit through in time, I'll be there on Friday," she said. "It shouldn't be a problem as I've phoned up and checked and they say it's on its way.
"We've not ridden competitively since the spring when we had a couple of hunter chases and point-to-points."

The Limbaugh Lesson: [Conservative] White Guys Finish Last
If Rush Limbaugh can be black balled because his political views are not in line with politically correct orthodoxy no one is safe. If Rush Limbaugh can be thwarted economically because he's maligned by racist words he doesn't believe and he never uttered, no one's economic dreams are safe–anyone can say that a person said anything and if that person believes something unpopular to the ruling class, they're done.
Here is the hierarchy of economic safety in a politically correct charged world:
Least safe: White, middle aged, alpha-male, person of color who votes Republican, female who votes Republican
Less safe: Anybody who is white
Moderately safe: Anybody who is white and voted for Barack Obama
More safe: Anyone who is of color and voted for Barack Obama
Safer still: Anyone who is female and of color
Safest of all: Black, lesbian Obama voter (If she voted for Hillary in the primaries, she's suspect.)
We are no longer a merit-based economy, we are a skin color and political ideology-based economy. We are exactly what Dr. Martin Luther King didn't want: a place where people are judged not by their accomplishments, not by the content of their character, but by their color and political perspective.
And why is conservative put in brackets in the headline? Because white guys are suspect until they're clear about their voting record. Once a white man admits that he made the "right" decision and voted for Barack Obama, people can relax…but only a little. White people are racists. They can't help it. You just never know about white people, so it's best to not get too comfortable.

I believe mermaids are real. The government is trying to control us and make us believe that nothing mythical exist. They will brainwash or pay you off so that people can keep quite about what they've seen or heard. Well sooner or later the truth will come out, the government can't keep secrets about whats out there.
I watched a special on animal planet last night and yes, mermaids do really exist. A government agent, who's identity remained witheld, admitted to the fact that mermaids do exist and the navy seal actually caught one in 2004 and kept it alive until it died in 2007. He wasnt able to show his face on tv, but I believe every word he said.!!! Mermaids are humans who have evolved over the years.!!

Don't miss Democracy Now! host Amy Goodman on "Melissa Harris-Perry," this Sunday, March 1st. The show airs live from 10 a.m. to Noon ET on MSNBC.
DN! In Depth
By Amy Goodman with Denis Moynihan — President Barack Obama issued the third veto in his more than six years in office, rejecting the "Keystone XL Pipeline Approval Act." This was the new congressional Republican majority's first bill this year. Climate scientist James Hansen, the former head of the NASA Goddard Institute for Space Studies, wrote in The New York Times that if the pipeline gets built, "it will be game over for the climate." This vote and veto came as much of the United States was gripped by extreme cold weather, while most of California braces for even more drought. The corporate television newscasts spend more and more time covering the increasingly disruptive, costly and at times deadly weather. But they consistently fail to make the link between extreme weather and climate change.

I like the prospects for this company, but if things are looking so good going forward, why have insiders been selling large blocks of shares over the last couple of weeks ?
Single digits would have been the best time to load up, but it's not mandatory, we all know.
Gotta question why insiders didn't load up when stock in single digits.
Sales people make commissions when they exceed their sales goals. Management makes bonuses when they achieve their directives. Directors and officers are paid for performance through stock options. In the case of SNTS, many of the very same directors and officers that are selling now, also sold last year when the stock price was in the single digits. If I had avoided buying this stock last year because insider's were selling, I would have missed out on a 90% gain. Personally, I do not see a problem with insider's selling when the stock company is doing well.
Sentiment: Buy
This has been addressed many times in the past weeks. Don't worry.

Tall in the saddle
Put city life on hold at guest ranches
OK, pardner, listen up close 'cause I ain't got time to tell ya twice about the way things used to be.
Long ago, there was this place they called cowboy country, way up in the B.C. Interior. Nothin' but cowboys, horses, mountains and wild critters.
Heck, that was long before all this technology stuff came in. Them was the good old days, the real deal, ridin' tall in the saddle on a real ranch.
Pulling into the Flying U Ranch, on Green Lake northeast of Clinton, right away modern life in a big city seems like a distant memory.
The Flying U is Canada's oldest working guest ranch, established in the 1820s by the Northwest Fur Trading Company. It boasts quite a history and it's still goin' good.
During the gold rush of the 1860s, the ranch became a roadhouse and then in 1923 rodeo star Jack G. Boyd took over.
Jack's friend, cowboy movie star William S. Hart, came up with the ranch's moniker, named after a Hollywood movie. Boyd used to host an annual rodeo that rivalled the Calgary Stampede for top riders.
They even shot Canada's first movie right on the ranch.
Being authentic means none of that fancy wall-to-wall carpeting or air conditioning.
No sir, you want some fresh air, you open the front door of your cabin. Rustic is the best word to describe the ranch, except for the new lodge, built recently to replace the old one that burned down. That's where they serve up huge lashings of ranch-style food, including bacon and eggs in the morning and steaks and pork chops at night.
The Fremlin family has been operating the Flying U since 1980, keeping the ranch's old-fashioned charm but slowly adding new attractions, like the museum, which shows relics of the old days.
What makes the Flying U different than most guest ranches, though, is its policy of self-guided riding.
You choose a horse in the corral at 8 a.m. (actually, the staff will fit you with one) and off you go until 4 p.m. Not one of those one-hour guided trail walks here.
They'll pack you a lunch and you can stay out all day. Hundreds of acres of rolling hills and open meadows to explore. After a hard day riding on the trails, mosey on in to the Longhorn Saloon for a cold one.
At night, the kids can catch a movie at the Black Horse Theatre. There's a group campfire every night and old-fashioned stoves in the cabins.
It's a family-style place where you can see the stars. In the sky, that is, not in the obit section of the newspaper.
'Course, you being in the area already, you might want to wander up the road and say hello to Dimps Horn over at Watch Lake Lodge.
Dimps, she's been there longer than the Fremlins at Flying U, I figure. The Horn family's been running the Lodge since 1950.
Aside from the trail rides, they've got rustic cabins, trout fishing, boats to rent and an old candy store for the kids. Dimps used to be the local schoolteacher, so she'll tell ya about the old days if you ask. Swimming's darned good in the lake, too, I hear.
Now, if you want to learn about the good old days in these parts, then Hat Creek Ranch is the place you ought to go.
They call it a ranch, but it's really a living museum, the kind where they bring the past to life with "animators," actors all dressed up to resemble cowboys, Indians, miners, cooks, maids and gold panners from the Gold Rush days.
Just like up in Barkerville, only a lot closer to get there from here.
It's all pretend, for sure, but at Hat Creek they're real good at it.
Here in the dry rain-shadow climate east of the Coast Range Mountains, a unique blend of cowboy cultures evolved over the years, set in a landscape of sage, bunchgrass and Ponderosa pines.
Why, there are stage-coach rides and trail rides and panning for rubies in the creek, drum making, blacksmithing and storytelling.
To bring native culture alive, they've got a sweat lodge and bannock (bread) making and you can camp in a teepee or a kekuli (native pithouse). On the way comin' or goin', make sure to drop into Clinton, a real cowboy town, and check out the museum and the Palace Hotel on a walking tour.
They're fixing that old 1879 hotel up pretty good, may be open for guests again in the future, just like in the good old days.
Up in cowboy country, the more things change the more they stay the same.

'Monk' Recap: 'Mr. Monk And The Voodoo Curse'
Dee Doyle
September 28th, 2009 1:20pm EDT
Pin it
Last week's episode of "
" was one of the best we've seen for several seasons now, which was both a surprise and a delight. The case was interesting, the facts took some time to work together, there was a high speed chase, and Natalie lost her freaking mind. Monk even hugged her willingly! It looks like a voodoo curse was put on this show, the positive kind.
"Mr. Monk and the Voodoo Curse" starts out with a little league team practicing in a park. One of the hitters, a little boy, keeps trying and failing to hit the ball. His patient coach eggs him on, and politely chats with an elderly woman who power walks by. Finally the boy hits a homer and his joy is cut short when they find out his hit killed the old woman when it landed. Aw. Things get substantially creepy when her grieving family finds a voodoo doll in her house with a baseball attached to it, indicating that the voodoo person knew how she'd die days before she did. Enter in Monk!
It's a little strange that this would interest the San Francisco police immediately, since there is no real proof of foul play and they have lots of real cases to worry about, but it's a television show. No one, not even Monk, can really figure out how the 'killer' knew that the woman would be randomly hit by a baseball, and Natalie insists that voodoo is real and they should believe in it. Everyone just laughs at her, but things become steadily more disturbing when a second death - a golfer struck by lightning - has a voodoo doll.
Natalie surprises Monk by insisting they take a vacation immediately on her dime, and then she pretends to call Stottlemeyer. Monk doesn't buy it though, and Natalie admits she is seriously terrified of this case. Especially since a third person has now been found dead with a voodoo doll. She refuses to go inside the dead man's house, he had a heart attack, and Monk is left to deal with it alone. The only remaining family is a woman named Angeline who says her uncle was ailing and he was scared of the voodoo stories. He had a heart attack as soon as he saw the package in his house held a doll.
Things get very serious for the case when Natalie is sent a voodoo doll herself. Its head is cut off. She opens up to Monk that a voodoo woman predicted her husband's death years ago, and she's blamed herself for not believing ever since. Monk is duly distracted by concern for Natalie, and they have no real leads on what is going on. As usual, Monk is slightly more upset about what will happen to him if Natalie doesn't get back to herself, but he has a few moments of genuine concern. Monk even hires a voodoo store owner, a former suspect in the case, to come and reassure Natalie that she'll be fine by lifting the curse. Instead of simply dabbing the potion on her skin, she drinks it, and they have to call an ambulance.
Image © NBC Universal, Inc.
This is when Monk puts it all together, because the paramedic is Angeline, the niece of the heart attack victim. He figures out that she was the paramedic for both the other deaths and intentionally set up this voodoo idea so she could kill her uncle. No one would think about her when there was a weird voodoo serial killer on the loose. She was afraid of Monk so she purposely distracted him by threatening Natalie. Monk and the voodoo storeowner chase down the ambulance and manage to save Natalie! And she promises not to believe any more in curses or voodoo ... although not before laughing at Monk for having plenty superstitions of his own!
This was a fun episode and it took quite some time for the killer to become apparent. It's great to have some mystery again, since the past few cases were either obvious or revealed early on. It's a little odd that the woman would use such an elaborate plan, but it's "Monk," who cares. Killers have to be creative with him around. It was nice to see Monk worried about Natalie, even if it was selfish at times, and Traylor Howard acted the heck out of this episode.
"Monk" is on USA Friday nights at 9 PM EST.

We found our Top 11 Apartment very clean, well-furnished and amazingly equipped for our stay. We were 4 people and we had plenty of tableware and tools for cooking. Its position was very central, on the green line of Wien underground (Pilgramgasse station was the nearest one): in a few minutes we could reach every attraction, from Schoenbrunn to the Rathaus, or to Schloss Belvedere. The red-haired girl that welcomed us into the house was very polite, willing and helpful: we have never seen anyone but her, but she was always at our disposal and she even allowed us to leave our luggage in her service room during our last day in Wien, since we had to leave our Apartment in the morning but we only had our return train at 10 p.m.
Wi-Fi worked only on the first night of our stay: we told this to the staff but the problem was not solved. The hot-water heating was pretty difficult to manage: on the first night we had to turn off the heating in order to get hot water, but then we had... only VERY hot water: the hot/cold regulation didn't know any half measures. The bath tub wasn't very nice to look at: it had scales and encrustations, so it looked quite dirty (even if it was not). Then, there are neither a bath plug nor a holder for the sprinkler, so it was not so comfortable to use only one hand at once to wash ourselves. Last but not least, an extractor fan or a window in the bathroom would be appreciated.
Warm, cozy and clean apartment. The kitchen had everything we needed (except the freezer :( ) We were satisfied :)
No parking and even mrs. Receptionist didn't have any idea where to park our car.
Staff helps a lot even we went there is during Christmas.
Wifi is quite slow
Proper heating (it was nice warm inside) Good location, we could walk into the city center Quiet, peaceful neighborhood Playground next to the building Well equipped (microwave oven, water boiler, built-in fridge, dishwasher, extractor fan, cook top) Clean rooms Nice "gifts" upon arriving (praline) Private parking
No elevator It was very hard to get through the passage to the parking lot Very few parking lot A broken table A few parts of the slatted bed base was missing it was very uncomfortable
The apartment was excellent with good and co-operative staff. which helped me with early checkin and late checkout.
close to the city center and subway and shonburn
but we didnt like owner's attitude. we found a leak of the battery plugged with a rag in the small room (apartment TOP16) in the first days. But nobody fixed it till almost the end of our staying there when we treatened to fine the owner on 100 euro. also there was not any lift
Great location close to old town, lot of space, quiet area
Not enough light - weak bulbs, espacially in the bathroom and kitchen
Perfect location 3mins from tube, 2 large bedrooms, large bathroom with large tub, good kitchen (although we used only the fridge), large balcony.
Mattrasses are old, thin and worn, especially in 1 bedroom needs to be replaced. Hallway windows covered with paper sheets instead of blinded (milky glass or curtains)
The location is really good!
It was cold in the room.
Although is not in the center of the city, is very near Pilgramgasse Station which is 10-15 minutes away from to most of the nicest places in Vienna. There is a little park next to the building, perfect for toddlers and kids.
You have look for the manager when you need something, but she usually comes only sometimes a day. We missed toilet paper one day and we had to buy it.
We are family with 3 children: 11, 7 and 1 years old. The apartment is equipped well for families. The location is near metro station Pilgramus (500 metrs) . Only 2 station to Karlplatz (Opera, butterflies garden) and 2 station to Shornburn palace (there's great children museum there and a lot of activites). The children playground near appatments. Strongly reccomended!
The apartment was quite large and bright and nicely decorated. Location was perfect, close to the metro and playground for children. All requests made to the staff prior to our arrival were duly met. Highly recommendable!
Higher standards with cleanliness would be nice (kitchen utensils for example, inter phone). Also, internet connection was not good.
Everything! Comfortable apartments, well equiped, very clean, surprisingly good price for Vienna. Very close to metro station, no more than two or three stops from the old city center and one stop away from Schonbrun palace. Lovely and lively neighborhood, "Margareten", with all kind of super markets and facilities and some cute bars and taverns. If you are travelling with children, they will definetely apreciate the nearby shady park and playground.
The concierge helped us a great deal after my friend's purse had been stolen on U-Bahn. And the place is superb, of course.
Location not in the centre but close to metro in a nice area. Pretty old building and nice apartment.
They tried to take the payment from my credit card even though it was agreed that the money should be left inside a safe and was already there.
Cleanliness, the size of the apartment.
The loud noise coming from the daycare in the courtyard below. It seriously sounded like the kids were in the apartment. Also the building attached to the apartments was having work done so there were workers making loud noises at 8am. The parking space was awful and for 15 Euros a night, it was a rip-off. You had to drive through the building with about a 2-inch clearance on each side of the car and squeeze your car into a small area in the courtyard. We actually used public transportation one day because we didn't want to have to try to get the car out.
the location was marvelous!
no air conditioning, was over 30C at night and very uncomfortable, we could not sleep. Would recommend the owner give a map of the city and also a write up as to where the grocers and metro and neighbourhood restaurants are.
Great location, close to U4 metro and Nachsmarkt.
Apartment ought to have been described as a studio with bed and sitting areas in the same room. No lift in building.
Quiet place with enough space between schonbrunn and stadt garden.
A bit cold at night. No manual for the temperature regulator. No microwave.
Great Location Staff Very Friendly Clean Apartment Size
We a family with young children and it was really cool that the room was warm, big and comfortable. The kitchen is good enough for cooking which was important for kid's food. There is a playground just next to the building so your kids could play on it. Apartments are situated 15 - 20 minutes walking distance from Karlsplatz and 5 minutes from underground station. If you want to buy something from the shop there is Billa nearby.
If you have a lot of suitcases there is no elevator in the building.
