  Fabulous apartment we loved staying here. Nice and quiet and air con was fab esp during the heat! Everything you needed to hand. Mario was fab.
  
  What could be improved: Did not know what to do with our collection of bin bags could not find an outside bin…sorry.

• Jennifer from United Kingdom – 22 September 2024 (9/10)

  The location was excellent. Central but quiet at night. Surprisingly spacious, good aircon, very comfy bed.
  Matteo who handed us the key was excellent. Didn’t spend much time actually in the apartment but it was perfect for a long weekend.
  
  What could be improved: Nothing! Fabulous!
  Tip though…take mosquito repellent as there are a lot of them about in Venice!

• Geeta from United Kingdom – 7 September 2024 (9/10)

  Excellent location, just 5 minutes walk from the S. Samuele water taxi stop. There were lots of small boutiques and places to shop nearby. Restaurants and coffee shops were within walking distance. The house has air conditioning which was a huge comfort in hot Venice weather. The house was of good size, sufficient for a family of 4 people. The sofa bed was comfortable. Clean bed linen, towels, hand towels were provided. Soap, shampoo, body lotion was there. Matteo was quite helpful, he responded promptly and recommended good places to eat nearby.I would recommend this property.
  
  What could be improved: Addition of utensils in the kitchen and coffee, tea, sugar, salt could improve the experience.

• Nina from Canada – 21 August 2024 (9/10)

  Air conditioner is life saving in July. Matteo is great host. He reacted immediately when we had prob;em with electricity, because too many appliences were on the same time at +40 outside. Working zone with desk in master bedroom is very convenient for working remotely.
  
  What could be improved: No life in Venice after 11pm

• Damyana from Bulgaria – 12 February 2024 (8/10)

  It was very close to every sightseeing destination, the host was so helpful and polite, even helped us to get there via navigation of the waterbus! The apartment was very big, had a working kitchen, a clean bathroom and 24/7 customer support. When asked, they immediately changed the bedding.
  
  What could be improved: It was a bit dirty, there was a lot of dust and debris, we even found a lost earing under one of the beds. Overall only the floor was dirty.

• Halim from Turkey – 18 November 2023 (9/10)

• Brady from United States – 16 October 2023 (9/10)

  Location and cleanliness

• Michael from Denmark – 2 October 2023 (8/10)

  Great location on a quiet side street.
  
  What could be improved: Everything was fine.

• Mclachlan from Australia – 23 September 2023 (9/10)

  The location was quiet yet close enough to walk to all that Venice has to offer.
  
  What could be improved: The stairs to the apartment but if you don’t have large heavy bags like us it is fine.

• Mary from Ireland – 18 July 2023 (9/10)

  A very clean , spacious apartment on an atmospheric tiny street near the Campo San Stefano and Academia bridge. A lovely retreat at the end of a day's sightseeing!
  Matteo , who welcomed us ,gave us a few good pointers about local attractions .
  
  What could be improved: Only small issue was that washing up liquid ( even a small measure ) or washing machine capsules ( two or three) weren't provided. Shower gel, shampoo and body lotion were provided , so why not a few capsules ??
