Reviews

  • Aaron from United Kingdom – 18 June 2023 (9/10)

    Great location for visiting the Biennale. Very close to shops and restaurants with easy access to the Alilaguna and water taxis. We were able to drop off bags after an early flight and check in was easy. Pietro was helpful and efficient. The apartment is well equipped and very good value for the four nights stayed in Venice.

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

    We stayed at the apartment during the carnival. Our daughter was able to join us for a few day and the owner of the apartment was able to accommodate an additional person. Location was perfect for us. It is quite, near to water public transportation and a beautiful park. To walk to Mark's square is about 25 min. This apartment is spacious, comfortable, and cosy. We had everything we needed and it will be nice to have a cutting board.

    What could be improved: nothing

  • Barry from Australia – 10 October 2024 (9/10)

    This is a really good apartment, situated in a quiet part of Venice. The host provides lots of really good information before you get there, make sure you read it, it helps a lot. Lots of restaurants nearby. If you are in Venice for Bienalle, this is the place to stay.

    What could be improved: Two floors up, but that is in the info provided by the host, so it's not an issue.

  • Andrew from Australia – 13 June 2024 (9/10)

    Great location, in with the locals and away from the Russell and bussel, but close enough to walk to it all.

    What could be improved: Shower is a bit slow to drain, suggest maintenance.

  • Kay from Italy – 13 June 2024 (9/10)

    We didn't have a breakfast option included, but that was no issue for us really.
    We were warned that we would be cramped when we added an extra person to our booking but in fact it was very spacious.
    The washing machine was fantastic. Great to be able to do our laundry there.
    Close to great restaurant and convenient shopping – fantastic!
    Loved how peaceful it was – would come back just for that!
    Five minutes walk to supermarket and chemists.
    Handy to vaporetto.

    What could be improved: The stair "treads" were very small, and we have big feet! But we coped well as we had very little luggage. Being older I did hold on to the rails when going downstairs.

  • Elisa from Canada – 20 May 2024 (8/10)

    Great location, very clean. Super friendly staff. Very spacious. Totally worth it

    What could be improved: It was a bit noisy in the building. There was some weird bird or pet that squaked here and there during the day and night.

  • Dave from United Kingdom – 19 September 2023 (9/10)

    Beautiful apartment, great communication pre check-in and kindly allowed later checkout. Fantasticly equipped kitchen, great aircon,, spacious and spotless and comfy bed. Great location a 15 minute walk from the mayhem that is central venice. Great restaurants very nearby too!

    What could be improved: If you don't like stairs be aware but not a problem otherwise. Shower a bit tired but generally we loved it!

  • Gábor from Slovakia – 11 July 2023 (9/10)

  • Karine from Australia – 1 July 2023 (9/10)

    We love the location and the setting of the appartment.
    Everything was perfectly set up

    What could be improved: The stairs to get to the appartment

  • Madeleine from Australia – 11 June 2023 (9/10)

    located in a lovely quiet part of town but still close enough to walk everywhere

    What could be improved: nothing comes to mind
