    What could be improved: Nada

  • Tuan from United States – 27 May 2023 (8/10)

    Nice apartment and close to Rialto bridge.

    What could be improved: Food left over from previous guests. The apartment should be clean all unused or leftover food.

  • Dan from Switzerland – 3 January 2025 (7/10)

    The location. The kitchen was fine. The bathroom clean.

    What could be improved: The shower was very small. The second bed was very small. The windows are not really windows, they just show the next wall. The floor was very cold (would be fine in summer)

  • D from United States – 22 June 2024 (8/10)

    The location was within walking distance to restaurants, shopping, and other points of interests. The apartment was clean and tidy. The main bedroom had beautiful wooden built-ins on one wall.

    What could be improved: The toilet set was unhinged on one side and the shower was extremely tight. One bedroom had only curtains to privacy.

  • Mosi79 from Germany – 21 October 2023 (9/10)

    All

    What could be improved: some noise from kitchen near

  • Sofia from Germany – 17 September 2023 (7/10)

    Located great, near the main bridge, but in a quiet area, so there were no problems with night noise.

    What could be improved: All those are not crucial disadvantages.
    There was not much Light in the apartment. Coffee machine was a bit broken. Stairs were noisy, so when one wants to come down – everyone else will awake.

  • Maria from United Kingdom – 28 July 2023 (9/10)

    Overall, a great stay, good location, good value.

    What could be improved: Meeting instructions not clear, difficult to find.

  • Vivek from Netherlands – 10 May 2022 (8/10)

    What could be improved: Since bathroom and bedrooms were on different floors, it was difficult to use bathroom.

  • Jing from Canada – 5 July 2024 (9/10)

    Great location
