Reviews

  • Olga from Israel – 5 September 2024 (9/10)

    I liked a very good location, excellent condition of appartement. Quick and simple communication with owner/ contact person. Detailed explanation for each question.

    What could be improved: I don't know. For me it was very good experience.

  • Ioana from Romania – 26 October 2024 (8/10)

    Great location for being in the middle of main attractions, but quiet for sleeping.
    Very responsive staff.

  • Holly from United States – 17 June 2024 (9/10)

    The location of this flat is superb. It’s so close to the center but off the beaten path so it’s not noisy. The communication with the host is great and there is plenty of room to spread out in. The beds are comfortable – even the individual singles in the second bedroom – and we really appreciated having access to an iron. And the AC worked perfectly. It is good value for what you pay.

    Note: make sure you download the instructions before you arrive at the door as we sat outside for ten minutes waiting because I could not get a signal between the buildings. The host had sent everything but I just neglected to read the very simple instructions!

    What could be improved: Small complaints: some of the sockets near the main bed did not work, the wardrobe space to hang up clothes was … inaccessible; And no real mugs for coffee or tea. These would not change my complete willingness to stay again!

  • Durga from United Kingdom – 24 March 2024 (9/10)

    I received clear instructions and travel options from airport to the flat.
    The person who was supposed to receive us was always responsive to text messages
    The property was neat and well maintained.
    It was very close to the vaporetto , main tourist attractions such as doge's palace and St.marks basilica.

    What could be improved: We did not find anything to fault

  • Hugh from New Zealand – 18 December 2023 (9/10)

  • Julie from Colombia – 26 October 2023 (9/10)

    Our stay in Venice was wonderful. Everything went smoothly, and Marine was incredibly friendly and accommodating. The apartment was perfectly located, close to everything. We would definitely choose to stay here again in the future.

    What could be improved: The only slight drawback was the stairs to access the place.

  • Wai from Estonia – 20 October 2023 (9/10)

    Location couldn't have been better

  • Meltem from United States – 10 June 2023 (9/10)

    Very good location, close to the main attractions. Very close to the boat station to go to the airport. Marine was very nice and helpful. Great to have a whole apartment with laundry machine and kitchen items. Convenient and spacey! We had a great stay here.

  • William from United States – 15 July 2022 (9/10)

    The location is wonderful! Super clean, comfortable. Our family of 4 fit great.
