Reviews

• Lori from United States – 7 September 2024 (8/10)

  Location was great,wifi internet and phone didn't work at all
  
  What could be improved: Very very hard to find with a porter,they need to paint the RED OF THE ADDRESS ITOOKS LIKE 3s instead of 5s

• Iva from Belgium – 29 September 2024 (9/10)

  Excellent apartment allowing you to live like a true Venitian close to the canals and nice caffes.

• Marsha from South Africa – 15 July 2024 (9/10)

  The apartment is really spacious and beautiful, set in a peaceful and quiet garden with a private entrance.
  
  What could be improved: The apartment is not well equipped in terms of crockery and cutlery.
  
  Beware: a very large cleaning fee is levied upfront. It amounted to another three quarters of the advertised price, which made this apartment much more expensive than we would have paid. Despite the cleaning fee, the floor was dirty, and we were told by the very unfriendly check-in clerk that we would have to dispose of our own garbage (which is not easy to do in Venice – there are very few garbage bins around).
  
  Overall, I liked the place, but I would not stay there again because I felt ripped off.

• Lien from Vietnam – 12 May 2024 (8/10)

  What could be improved: the host is helpful but wifi is sometime not strong enough .the vehicle to travel in and out to the property is not easy to find or fullly booked (and water taxis always is too expensive.
  Many high staired bridges may harm to your suitcases's wheel if you have to walk from and to the train station to the house.

• Balchand from India – 9 October 2023 (7/10)

  The property is quaint house, with a garden and well furnished. Bedroom is very spacious with a nice oriental carpet and a lovely chandelier.
  
  What could be improved: No Cafés / supermarkets nearby. Coffee / tea sachets / sugar could be provided. The garden in the property could be better maintained. The compound door locks automatically and so one must be careful to open this door with the key, before closing the front door, prior to checking out.
