Reviews

• Anna from Canada – 5 January 2025 (9/10)

  It had a mini-fridge which was nice, but I did not need all the stuff in there I just wanted the fridge. The room was in a good location and was clean and comfortable. You can go into the room if you arrive after hours and just check-in with the owner to pay the city tax the next day.
  
  What could be improved: You can hear everyone opening and closing the main door below, as well as when they go up and down the stairs.

• Altaratz from Israel – 29 March 2025 (8/10)

  It was very nice we loved the room it was so big and clean! The flow of water in the shower was a bit strong so it was hard for my hairstyle to maintain pretty !

• Kevin from United States – 26 March 2025 (9/10)

  central location was perfect for exploring all of Venice
  
  What could be improved: the streets could get noisy at night… being so close to the Rialto crowds

• Lucinda from United Kingdom – 19 March 2025 (9/10)

  I don’t think I can write enough good words to describe how amazing our stay was. We booked the MM suite, which is new. The room was stunning, simply but tastefully decorated, modern and chic, and so clean. Perfectly located, super close to everything. I can’t even explain how big the room was, the photos don’t even do it justice. Umberto was just fantastic, the perfect host, so communicative from start to finish. If you’re in Venice BOOK HERE. You will not be disappointed. Thank you for a fantastic stay! We will definitely be back.
  
  What could be improved: Absolutely nothing 🙂

• Padraic from Ireland – 13 March 2025 (9/10)

  Excellent location in the heart of Venice 2 minutes to Rialto and 5 minutes walk to san marco square. Umberto is a gem, so welcoming, and some great advice on where to eat how to get around.

• Lorena from United States – 10 March 2025 (9/10)

  What could be improved: Nothing

• Anushay from Qatar – 3 March 2025 (7/10)

  Ideal for solo traveler, location was excellent

• Muhammad from Belgium – 28 February 2025 (9/10)

  Quite affordable to stay in the center of venice tourist area

• Sebastian from Ireland – 22 February 2025 (9/10)

  The apartment was quite comfortable and clean. Very climatic, and you could really feel the history there. Close to all must-sees and a café for nice coffee & breakfast is just steps from there – past a little square.
  
  What could be improved: USB charging sockets or power adapters/chargers would be very handy. The staircase grill protective gate was not fully closing. Also, the worn front door could be replaced or revamped. Don't expect great views through the winows as you'll only see walls of the other tenaments.
