Reviews

• Anastasiia from France – 10 August 2024 (9/10)

  Very well situated, nice appartment and nice staff. Well done

• Susith from United States – 26 November 2024 (9/10)

  Location was very good. Very clean apartment and responsive host.
  
  What could be improved: Booking.com portal did not present the pricing clearly so ended up paying extra Euro 100 for one night stay. The company didn't help with sorting out the issue. That was the only issue.

• Oyin from United Kingdom – 23 August 2024 (9/10)

  The apartment was nice and clean. Natural light lit it in the early mornings and in the evenings. It has all the amenities you need to feel at home. Owners were friendly and ready to help, will definitely consider coming back.
  
  What could be improved: We had a blackout on the first night, but it was a general thing in the neighborhood nothing to do with the house itself. We also had issues with the internet coming and going but the last day it fixed itself.

• Anita from United Kingdom – 22 August 2024 (9/10)

  The hotel was super close to basically everything. Everything was within an hours walking distance, with some attractions even being as close as a 15 mins walk away. The train station was also a 10 mins walk away with the watertaxi station being 1 minute down the road. This is the same watertaxi station you can take to get to the airport too! So it's a very very convenient location. There were lots of restaurants nearby too so it was such a vibe being able to just get ready in the evening and then taking a nice stroll in the area to pick a place to eat for dinner. The supermarket was also about a 5-10 mins walk away too (Despar and the coop). There is a water fountain right outside the hotel so we could stock up on water.
  Do not arrive before 3pm because you will not be able to get into your hotel room before the check-in time stated (for us it was 3pm).
  
  What could be improved: Our hotel particularly did not have ac. It had two fans but just no ac. Considering we went in peak august time when the weather was 35 degrees celsius and hotter, we would feel very hot and stuffy when coming back to the hotel after a very long day out in the sun. If the hotel had ac, then it would've been a 10/10 experience. But apart from that, everything else was perfect

• Jungeum from South Korea – 7 July 2024 (9/10)

  Laundry machine and drying rack. A lot of windows and a very cozy environment. Just perfect

• Artur from Poland – 6 October 2023 (9/10)

  Clean apartment
  Best lokalization
  
  What could be improved: Nothing

• Joseph from United States – 20 September 2023 (9/10)

  Breakfast was fantastic! The host set the table every morning and provided a delicious spread of cornettos and cappuccinos as well as bread, toast, and breakfast cereal!
  
  What could be improved: The location was a bit farther than would have been ideal, but you have the opportunity to walk through some wonderful small streets and experience life outside of the busy Duomo area and city center!

• Masa from Croatia – 25 June 2023 (9/10)

  Great appartament in a very lively part of the town. Near to the main station, 20 minutes walk to the Ponte Rialto. We we walking on foot all around. The vaporetto station is in front of the appartament. Keys were waiting for us in the key box, so we did not have to wait for the landlord or anybody. We arranged everything per Whatsup and were in contact with the host, whatever we needed. We got all the instruction and there was no problem at all. The appartament is very cute and has everything you need. Two nice rooms, very nice bathroom and kitchen with the eating table.
  
  What could be improved: It does not have a washing machine – which we did not need, but just for the information. It also does not have an air condition, but it is in an old building, so when you open all the windows, it is o.k. and not hot.

• Cindy from United States – 19 June 2023 (9/10)

  Someone greeted us to explain the workings of the apartment appliances, including the plugs to help combat mosquitoes at night.
  
  What could be improved: Screens on the front windows.

• Deborah from United States – 20 November 2022 (9/10)

  We really liked how cute the place was and the location
  It was clean and the bed and sofa-bed were comfortable. Luca met us and gave us the keys. He was very nice and knowledgeable about locations. We enjoyed our stay. There is a water bus stop right by the apartment. It was very convenient to get back to the train station, especially because I had a broken foot.
  
  What could be improved: Cleaning fee of €90 seems high with the amount of cleaning required prior to check out.
