Reviews

• Roman from United States – 18 June 2024 (9/10)

  We really enjoyed this place! It is located in a quiet historic area called Ghetto Vecchio and it is just a 12 minute walk from the train station. There is a fish market nearby (5 minute walk) as well as a couple of supermarkets (Despar and Conad) and a number of restaurants. Vaporetto stations are also not far from the apartment. The apartment was clean and tidy. Our host was easy to reach and made sure we had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. There are dining amenities and pots, pans and dishes should you chose to cook. Overall, we had a very pleasant stay and would choose this place again!

• Richard from Australia – 29 June 2024 (9/10)

  Wonderful quiet location. Easy access to supermarkets, restaurants, waterbus transport, railway station.
  
  What could be improved: Sadly the restaurant Al Faro, which we had eaten at with friends on a few occasions 11 years ago, was closed for renovations.

• Natalie from United States – 25 June 2024 (9/10)

  This little apartment is located on the first floor and the windows all face the canal. It is in the historic Jewish quarter, and across from a charming elementary school so you feel a part of real life and not just trapped in a tourist area but still close to everything. Giovanna was super accommodating around us arriving late due to a late flight, and a mixup we had when booking. The apartment was super clean, convenient, and very comfortable for our family.

• Adam from Poland – 8 April 2024 (9/10)

  Ideal localisation. Very kind and helpful host.

• Tereza from Czech Republic – 14 August 2023 (9/10)

  The location was absolutely amazing – the northern part of inner Venice, walking distance everywhere. You can really feel the true atmosphere of Venice. There were gondolas riding in front of our windows.
  
  What could be improved: It is difficult to dry wet bathing suits in the apartment (we went to Lido several times during our stay) – would it be possible to put some outside of the windows maybe?

• Ioannis from Greece – 28 June 2023 (9/10)

  Nice apartment, you feel like a local living in Venice. It is clean and has all the basics which you may need. It was a pleasant stay in a very interesting, historic neighborhood.

• G from Australia – 29 May 2023 (8/10)

  The location great. It was a short walk from the train station and close a lot of wonderful eateries close by.
  
  What could be improved: The water pressure for the shower was weak.

• Steve from United Kingdom – 17 May 2023 (9/10)

  Great location. Only a 10 minute walk from the station. The apartment is just before the little bridge not just after it. Great communication with the host who was exceptionally accommodating with our arrival time. Large apartment with everything you need. Very clean and quiet. Recommend the Gondola ride just outside the apartment.
  
  What could be improved: 😊

• Martin from Estonia – 22 October 2022 (9/10)

• Ashraful from Italy – 14 May 2022 (9/10)

  The apartment is close to Venezia S.Lucia station. So we were able to walk from the the station to the apartment. You will get literally everything you need for a comfortable stay in the apartment. Also the host was really nice and told us everything we needed to do. Also gave us nice recommendations for visiting.
  
  I am gonna definitely book again if I go to Venice again.
