• Sharon from United Kingdom – 11 April 2024 (10/10)

  Nikos the host was so helpful, clear instructions & pictures on how to reach the apartment from the airport and how to get into the apartment made it completely stress free to arrive and settle in. The apartment was very clean & comfortable with everything you need to cook & eat in the apartment if you choose too. The location of the apartment is fantastic, just one block back from the waterfront where you can pick up a Vaporetto and the Alilguna stop to & from the Airport and a very short walk to St Marks Square. Nikos also kindly shared lots of restaurant & places to go while we were staying, the recommendations were invaluable as there are so many places to eat & drink its great to have some insider info. We were very happy with the apartment and really enjoyed our time in Venice.

• Oana from Romania – 18 February 2024 (10/10)

  You can not wish for more. Everything was great, location, cleanliness and a very helpful host. We felt cold after a very rainy and cold day in Venice and we have asked if we can have higher temperature in the apartment.
  Somehow at that moment the heater application did not work from the host's mobile phone, so Nikos – the host, offered to come to us to do this. Even though I have insisted not to come as it was very late in the evening and I did not want to bother, he still came and fix this for us.

• Nadja from Sweden – 22 October 2023 (10/10)

  The location was the best possible. Just beside Doge Palace.
  Easy and fast way to Vaporetto, which was important for us, as my aunt is almost 80 years old.
  Many good places to eat around,
  
  What could be improved: Couldn't find fish market nearby. Had to go to Rialto, which is a pleasant path of course.

• Emily from United States – 14 October 2023 (9/10)

  This is a great place to stay if you want to be in the heart of Venice near many of the main sites and very close to vaporetto stop. It was surprisingly very quiet at night with windows closed (air conditioning worked well) and the apartment was larger than we expected (a small kitchen but ample other rooms including a dining/living room with a big table. A very comfortable bed too! Also excellent communication from the host who gave us lots of helpful suggestions – thanks for a great stay.

• Mark from United States – 31 August 2023 (10/10)

  It was very clean and comfortable and centrally located. It was perfect for us and Nikos was beyond helpful for directions and recommendations on where to go.

• Mike from France – 19 July 2023 (10/10)

  Brilliant location. Everything we needed was there. Clear instructions about getting in. Clean. Spacious. Highly recommended. The bar/restaurant downstairs to the left was great for snacks and drinks. The little shop opposite was excellent for ice cream and bottled drinks . If we come back to Venice this will be the first place to rebook.
  
  What could be improved: Nothing. All was excellent
