Reviews

    The best location, very clean, warm, comfortable and the host give us good advices on what to visit and where to eat.

    What could be improved: Everything was perfect.

  • Kristina from United Kingdom – 23 December 2024 (10/10)

    The host and his wife met us at Rialto and took us to the apartment to check in, they were friendly and helpful even though we were late to check in

  • Alena from Czech Republic – 28 November 2024 (10/10)

    Best place to stay with the best provider ever! Recommend to everyone!

  • Mayers from United Kingdom – 31 October 2024 (9/10)

    Amazing location and great value for the week we chose, would not hesitate to go again or any other property they own.

    What could be improved: Nothing comes to mind, other than a loose socket but I’m sure that would be put right quite easily now it’s reported.

  • Heather from United Kingdom – 28 October 2024 (10/10)

    It was very comfortable and clean but still kept the vintage look inside. It is code access so don’t have to carry a key.

  • Andreja from Slovenia – 7 May 2024 (10/10)

    Loved the design, the location, the friendliness of the owner.

    What could be improved: Mosquitoes 😉

  • Haider from Austria – 17 April 2024 (9/10)

    Location

    What could be improved: Value of money

  • Marija from Serbia – 17 February 2024 (10/10)

    The apartment was as it was on pictures. It is on ground floor but it is really warm (we were in February). The interior give you sence of Vienece and it is 5, 7 min from St. Marco's, so if you want real Vinece experience this is place for you. Near apartment are restaurants and shops, small square but as apartment is in small street it is really quiet. Beds were comfortable (1 bed and sofa) and apartment has enough space. It was well equiped for long and shirt stay.

    What could be improved: No negative impressions.

  • Amr from Egypt – 2 January 2024 (10/10)

    Everything was great. Owners were very friendly and helpful

    What could be improved: Nothing

  • Daniel from Romania – 27 November 2023 (10/10)

    Nice, clean and comfy apartment in a central but quiet area, close to shops and restaurants and anything you need. Friendly host, too! Would come back for sure!

    What could be improved: Nothing to say.
