Reviews

• Olga from Russia – 14 September 2024 (8/10)

  An ideal accommodation in Venice: a really residential area with authentic atmosphere (Castello), a very quiet and cosy place. Lots of shops, a good supermarket Coop in 5 min walk, restaurants and cafes. The vaporetto station Ospedale in just 5-7 min walk. A nice terrace with a great view. A well-functioning air conditioning. A well-equipped kitchen. We will for sure book again for our next stay in Venice.
  
  What could be improved: A kettle to boil water would be a great plus. I understand that Italians don't drink tea, but other people like tea… It would also be good to have a microwave oven. Also important to note that there is no elevator in the house.

• Victoria from United Kingdom – 2 May 2024 (8/10)

  Super cosy nice flat. Patio is a super hidden gem! Enjoyed every moment of the stay!

• Julie from United Kingdom – 6 June 2024 (5/10)

  The property is well situated it’s 6 minutes to St Marks square.
  
  What could be improved: The surrounding apartments which are only 2 made a lot of noise although I don’t think it was their fault but the walls being very thin , that was the worst part of it. Also the window in the bedroom would not open, not sure how they got around health and safety with that one.

• Davide from Italy – 27 May 2024 (7/10)

  What could be improved: Aria un po' pesante all'interno della casa
  Letti non comodissimi

• Nicole from Belgium – 2 April 2024 (9/10)

  Le caractère authentique du quartier, le calme, la proximité de l accès aux vaporetti, la présence d un excellent resto tout près ainsi qu une boulangerie.
  
  What could be improved: L absence d un tapis antidérapant dans la douche ainsi que la lenteur de l écoulement des eaux.

• Gabriele from Germany – 4 April 2024 (7/10)

  Die Lage ist gut, ein Supermarkt ist in der Nähe. Bis zur nächsten Vaporetto-Station ist es nicht weit.
  
  What could be improved: Der Abfluss in der Dusche muss gereinigt werden, das Wasser läuft schlecht ab.
  Die Dunstabzugshaube in der Küchenzeile funktioniert nicht.

• Maria from Italy – 5 January 2025 (6/10)

  La posizione in luogo tranquillo, silenzioso.
  
  What could be improved: Il forte odore di fogna in bagno che è stato veramente fastidioso da sopportare.
  La doccia con la tenda.
  Gli asciugamani in spugna necessari per l’igiene personale erano scarsi, mancavano quelli per il bidet.
  Scarsa pulizia in soggiorno.
