  Clean Apartment. Good communication, also when the plans are changing. Heating is working. Checkin was good. Providing some necessary washing utensils.

  The apartment was comfortable and quiet. The design of the apartment is thoughtful- there’s space for everything you need. Location is great for Biennale. Some nice restaurants nearby. After a long day of sightseeing, it was nice to come back to the apartment to rest and recharge.

• Nieulandt from Belgium – 18 July 2024 (8/10)

  Very well located apartment for visiting the Biennale. The tips we received from Damiano also led us to restaurants where we had a very tasty meal. Much appreciated.
  
  What could be improved: Airco is pretty loud.

• Rebecca from Germany – 26 October 2023 (9/10)

  Damiano was very accommodating, fast in responding and everything was easy and nice. The appartement is on the first floor and it was very kind to be able to store our luggage before and after the check in/out times (kind of locker under the stairs)
  
  What could be improved: just an idea: take some taps for the dishwasher with you, we didnt think about that.
