Reviews

  Nice large apartment, fully equipped and furnished, good location, few min walk from waterbus station, supermarket right by apartment
  
  What could be improved: Third floor no elevator , no AC, very hot in the summer

• Achantal from France – 6 January 2025 (9/10)

  Well located, easy to reach but not exposed to crowd and noise. Spacious appartment well equiped, 2 small bathrooms, convenient for 4 people.
  
  What could be improved: I really prefer to see the people. It's been quite anonymous to communicate through whatsapp and via the box outside of the house.

• Lindsay from United Kingdom – 31 August 2024 (8/10)

  This is a wonderful area of Venice as you are close to all of the tourist areas, but here you get a feel for the real Venice and the people who were so friendly it was wonderful.
  
  What could be improved: Some of the windows need a little looking at but this didn't affect our stay.

• Alexander from New Zealand – 4 June 2024 (8/10)

  Location, self sufficient check in, good communication, spacious, quiet.
  
  What could be improved: 3rd floor no lift difficult to carry heavy suitcases up stairs. Small shower room.

• Rene from Australia – 29 May 2024 (9/10)

  Great communication and assistance from the host, lots of room inside, nice and quiet area
  
  What could be improved: Only one bathroom which we knew but very small for such a large apartment. No elevator which we also knew at booking time so no issue there.

• Krzysztof from Ireland – 11 May 2023 (9/10)

  This charming, old-fashioned style apartment offers a fully-equipped setting for a comfortable family stay. Conveniently located near a supermarket and water bus, it provides easy access to essentials and local exploration. The host was notably helpful, adding to the positive experience.

• Alina from France – 11 May 2023 (8/10)

  We really like it! Grand, comfortable, good location

• Steven from Malaysia – 4 September 2022 (7/10)

  1) We had breakfast on our own.
  2) The location of the property is quite good but a bit far from the train station and from the water bus station.
  3) Need strong legs and strong heart to walk the distance either from the train station or water bus station.
  4) Need stronger legs and strong hear to climb up stair to the top floor – approximately 4 floors as based on 3 metre per floor.
  
  What could be improved: 1) Provide Air Conditioning
  2) Bigger Toilet/Shower – The Bathroom size in not in proportionate to the size of the rest of the apartment space and is not comfortable for more that 2 persons.
  ( However, being an existing old building, it will be difficult and cost too much to improve item 2.
  3) The Windows need fixing as most if not all the Metal " Fix Stay " for the outer Aluminum Windows are either missing or need replacement.
  ( This we experienced during heavy wind and rain for 2 nights. )
  
  Other than that we find staying in the place quite pleasant but a BIT PRICEY. A lower cost with Air Conditioning which IS A MUST for summer and I will definitely be happy to stay in the same apartment in 2023.
  
  Many thanks to one of the owner Gabriele.
  
  All the best and regards.

• Arkadiusz from Poland – 15 June 2022 (9/10)

  The size of the apartment and the location.
  
  What could be improved: Small bathroom comparing to the rest of the apartment.

• Murat from Mexico – 19 July 2024 (5/10)

  Large, clean, easy to access. Good customer service.
  
  What could be improved: Hot, hot, hot… The apartment is at the top floor. There is no air conditioning. It was extremely hot, we didn’t want to stay long and tried to arrive late due this. Put two fans at high speed all night just to get a little bit of sleep. Property definitely needs air con for hot summer days.
  
  There is only one bathroom with a shower only, and it is pretty small. Was hard to move around, and gets really hot also.
