  Canal view

• Alexander from Austria – 17 August 2024 (8/10)

  Since the property is private, it has more some sort of privateness- but the owner allowed us to store our luggage before and after our stay. No elevator, shower door was broken- bed a bit hard, pillows not comfortable at all – but since we where only staying for one night it was fine ! Location is great, 2 minutes from Rialto but very quiet at night! No breakfast and no filtered water provided
  
  What could be improved: The pillows- I must say the one pillow we got was kind of hard

• Cameron from Ireland – 8 June 2024 (6/10)

  Perfect location. Staff was very helpful.
  
  What could be improved: WiFi wasn’t working. After asking staff to not knock on the doors in the morning to clean they still did.

• Stretz from United States – 15 April 2024 (8/10)

  Loved being right on the canal. The room was small, but plenty for 2 people! Could be loud with the windows open but closing the windows eliminated most of the sound very well. Would stay here again! We could store our bags and retrieve them at our convience too! Very friendly and helpful staff as well. Thank you!
  
  What could be improved: A little confusing to find using Google maps, but looking at street signs too, we found it quickly

• Sonya from United States – 18 January 2024 (7/10)

  Amazing location, unique old fashioned vibe.
  
  What could be improved: A little shabby.

• Thestranger from United Kingdom – 8 September 2023 (8/10)

  The room size was great and the host waited for us as we arrived late and also helped me find the location as I got lost. The location where is it gives you access to the most important places to see in Venice. They allowed us for late checkin at 12 o'clock which i appreciated that. Also is clean.
  
  What could be improved: The charge of 50 euro which was not my fault but our flight was delayed due to traffic congestion. They do not offer breakfast, they do not have nets for the windows to prevent mosquitos.

• Wild from Australia – 30 June 2023 (8/10)

  What could be improved: Difficult to find! No fridge in room. Aircon not working

• Ashley from Germany – 2 April 2023 (8/10)

  it was perfectly, centrally, located for our trip purposes. the lady who checked us in was super friendly and sweet and helpful. the price was just right.
  
  What could be improved: it’s very dated. I saw some reviews that said it was dirty, but it’s very clean, it’s just older so it looks like it’s dirty.

• Sirce from United States – 20 February 2023 (8/10)
