Guest Reviews
- Defrancisci (8/5): - Alloggio pulito e ordinato, molto spazioso
- Voithová (8/5): Příjemná a ochotná kontaktní osoba, příjemné ubytování, kousek od nádraží. - balkon, příjemné prostředí, výborně vybavená kuchyň na vaření, skvěle předané informace ohledně ubytování a vstupu do apartmánu chyběly nám hrníčky na čaj, byly jen 2, koupelna hodně úzká, trošku problém se sprchováním, ale vše se vyřešilo
- McMullen (10/5): Quiet stay with plenty of space - Three levels of security seemed complicated but was actually easy to use. Lots of space and refrigerator was huge. Third floor was tough to get luggage up to but was far easier to depart.
- Benno (8/5): - Good and affordable apartment in a quiet neighborhood in mainland Venice. Perfect for shorter stays when you spend most of the day exploring the city. Nice canopy bed in the sleeping room. In walking distance to Venice Sestre railway station. Various stores and restaurants around. Perfect guidance through the contactless check-in process. The journey to the old town of Venice is a bit longer than we expected. About 15 minutes in very crowded buses. You should check the regional train connections from Sestre to Santa Lucia which might be easier and faster.
- Eden (10/5): -
- Hanshin (9/5): -
- Dejan (8/5): Nice apartment, close to Mestre train station. - It is cozy, has a lot of what you would need for a short stay, I especially value the small stuff like salt, detergent, shampoo, etc, even if I didn’t need them now. Location is nice, quiet, close to supermarket, couple of minutes to Mestre train station. Host is very nice, responsive, careful, always taking care of their guests. The house has 3 floors, with no elevator. Discuss with host if this is an issue with you.
Pictures in the description are a mix of multiple apartments, you may not get the exact one you liked.
- FRENK (8/5): Nel complesso la consiglio. - La posizione vicino alla stazione. La gentilezza dei proprietari e responsabile.
Il parcheggio comodo. Il materasso divano letto rigido e rumoroso.
La porta del bagno non idonea all'uso
- ANA IONELA (10/5): - Un apartament foarte curat și bine poziționat. Doar 2 minute până la gară și 10 minute până la Veneția
- Haoyue (6/5): - The location and space The sofa bed was far too soft, you practically sink into it. It feels like the mattress no longer has any proper support. We had back pain the whole time.
- Yudkovski (10/5): -
- Hyunwon (8/5): - 역에 가까워 본섬에 들어가기 편했어요.
주변에 맛집과 마켓이 많아 좋았어요 욕실 샤워기 물살이 약해서 샤워할수가 없었어요
- Aljaz (9/5): Perfect location, responsive host - Excellent apartment. Self check-in (you can arrive anytime) and reserved parking spot behind the gate. Quiet neighborhood. One bedroom for 3 plus a sofa in the kitchen for 2 people. Enough space for up to 5 people and 1 car. All equipment, including dishwasher and washing machine. Heating and air-conditioning. Warm and cozy. Few steps away from the shop (opens 8:15) and from the main train station.
To visit Venice island(s) you need: 1.5 Eur per person for train and 25 Eur per person for "vaporetto" boats for 24-hour tourist ticket (unlimited number of boat rides on ACTV boat lines (with numbers, not characters)). Bathroom is a bit narrow, kitchen table is small; not recommended for tall people of 2m or above :)
Water heater is gas-powered, it takes a bit to get warm water and to adjust the right temperature. Just be patient.
- Shun Chang (8/5): Pleasant stay. Only downside will be the shower’s heater. Apart from that, all good. - Superb location. A lot of food options nearby. Property is near to the train station. Well-maintained property. The space was a bit cramped for four adults. We also experienced an issue with the shower heater — the knob and shaft were loose, so we there was some difficulties to switch to the warm water setting.
- Javier (8/5): La ubicación es muy buena. - La ubicación y la cama. El baño, demasiado pequeño para una persona de cierta estatuta.
- veronica (5/5): -
- Isabel (9/5): Muy bien - El apartamento está muy bien situado, cerca de la estación de tren para poder ir a Venecia. Está en una zona independiente con la posibilidad de aparcar el coche lo que supone una ventaja. El apartamento tiene todo lo necesario y está decorado con mucho detalle para pasar una agradable estancia. La propietaria muy amable, dispuesta a ayudar en todo momento. El sofá cama no es muy cómodo
- Grzegorz (9/5): Lokalizacja blisko dworca, ładny apartament z niewielkim balkonem. - Lokalizacja blisko dworca, ładny apartament z niewielkim balkonem. Brak zadaszonego miejsca na rowery, klimatyzacja właściwe nie działa. Pomocna byłaby informacja o lokalizacji pralki czy suszarki.

- Konstantinova (8/5): - Расположение,рядом вокзал,магазин Кондиционер практически не чего не тянет.
- Marcela (9/5): -
- Kam (10/5): Exceptional -
- Kate (8/5): Really enjoyed our stay. Could have an easily stayed longer. Loved waking up early to the sound of the birds chirping. - Location, nice and spacious and clean. It also had a washing machine and clothes hanger outside, which was very convenient. Was great location close to the train to get to Venice. The host was so lovely to deal with and so helpful. Carrying heavy bags to the top floor.
- Jomon (9/5): Alright - Excellent location for visiting Venice. Walkable distance to the train station & Only 10 minutes journey to Venice on the train. AC was not enough for the entire room. Apartments may be more suitable for couples rather than families with kids as most of them prefer a quiet place.
- Lee (10/5): Exceptional - Host answered all questions very quickly. Nil
- Annie (9/5): Nice and comfortable apartment in a very quiet area and just 5 min walk from the train station. - quiet, clean, has all you need
- Tomislav (8/5): Very good - Location. 4 min to train station. Old sofa, uncomfortable for sleep.
- Juris (10/5): Excellent! - Very Good! OK!
- Michael (8/5): Very good - Beautifully arranged and very well guided by the host. The hot water in the Bad was not working
- Roberto (8/5): Great Location. A Safe and Charming Space One Train Stop Away from Venice. - The location was amazing. It was just a 5 minute walk to the Mestre train station to Venice, just one stop away. And there's a food court at the train station, which made it easy to grab a quick bite before heading to Venice. The hosts were very nice and it was very quiet in the building and our rental car was very safe while there. The 4-floor walkup with absolutely NO lights in the hallways at 1am. We had luggage and had to turn on the flashlights on our phones to see where we were going and to enter the lock code. And the shower stall, as many are in Italy, was tiny. Frankly, it was a bit snug for our party of 5 but certainly worth the cost of the accommodations.
- Samuel (7/5): Wouldn’t stay here again - Area it was in - secure property. The beds - on 1st look appears clean but actually material around the bed is dusty. Were there 4 days n never changed towels.
- Paolo (9/5): Superb -
- Martina (8/5): Very good -
- Carmen (9/5): Superb - Great place and amenities we had all we needed.
- Hanan (7/5): Good - location yo the train station was really good and rooms were wide and open. shower and toilet location is a bit small, there was a strange smell at the apartment and the environment regarding people was a bit unsettling.
- Ping (5/5): The apartment is ok, but the air conditioner is not good enough - In this one bed one living room apartment, there is one air conditioner in the hallway only.
In the bed room, the temperature is not cooling down after turn on the air conditioner and running for the whole day.
It’s hard for the summer time
- Maria (9/5): Superb -
- Jennifer (5/5): Not at all 'to be happy in Venice' - Very good location and check in is really efficient. The apartment is too hot! There is not enough ventilation during summer. There is only one aircon and located by the entrance (I find it useless to position it there). There is no aircon but one fan in the main bedroom and no fan nor aircon in the living room. We are group of five so it was a disaster, most of us slept by the entrance on the floor to get air! They should not accommodate more than 3 people in this tiny apartment with tiny bathroom too. It is not at all pleasant and we do not look forward to come back to the apartment after every day trip outside knowing what kind of accommodation with no cooling is waiting for us. The big shower didn't work too, so we have to deal with the small one. This experience in this accommodation in Venice would have been much better if the apartment meet our expectations. On the positive side, the apartment is cute, but that isn't enough and that is not what I came to pay for. I recommend the owner to invest less in the decor but to install more aircon (or position it wisely in the apartment to make it useful).
- Cain (8/5): A cute little place with close access to transit, grocery and restaurants. - The size of the bedroom was nice and I liked all the storage. I really appreciated the electric shutters on all of the windows to have dark places to sleep.
I also appreciated having the washing machine, and the building felt very secure.
The owners communicated all the necessary arrangements with me well in advance, and were very friendly and helpful. Because there were four of us, two of us slept on the pull-out couch in the living room. That made the living room and kitchen table area very cramped.
It was impossible to shower without completely soaking the bathroom floor, and the rainfall shower did not work so we had to use a tiny nozzle to shower. It was fine for my kids and I, but if my 6+ft husband had been with us, showering would have been very awkward for him.
- Cavazos (10/5): Exceptional -
- Wijanarko (9/5): Superb - It was owesome place, so clean. Nearby the train station, only 3 minutes. A lot of supermarket and chinese food Restaurant. Also if you wanna go to venice ISLAND, for one day trip its so easy to get 1 day pass for bus and water bus. Washing machine is great. The Water shower/waterflow at the bath room is not so strong, however its still accaptable.
- Krupaharan (8/5): Very good -
- Linda (8/5): Excellent loc ie train and bus. Top floor stairs fine for our group. Older guests would struggle - Shower was not 100 percent clean. High up so did no really concern us
- Cristina (9/5): Excellent location, very nice host, good looking and clean apartment - Very close to the train/bus station It would be nice to have insect grids at the windows, as there are a lot of mosquitos in the summer.
- Sara (9/5): Superb -
- Jose (9/5): The property it is perfect, just 8 minutes walking to the training station and just about 15 by train to Venice, - The property it is perfect, just 8 minutes walking to the training station and just about 15 by train to Venice,
- Mary (9/5): Superb -
- Vanessa (8/5): Good place to stay for a few days in Venice - Close to bus stop and train to Venice. We got the indication for self checking and it was very clear. Cleaned, all you need for a few days. Having a free parking space. We recommend to take a pass for transport and it includes the bus to Venice and the boats. Not the street where I like being alone late in the evening, but not something the owner could do with it. Not the most comfortable sofa bed but that’s often the case.
- Zaba (10/5): Good place to stay - Nice & clean
- Марија (10/5): Exceptional - The accommodation was wonderful. It was just like in the pictures, very clean and it has all the things that you need.The location was very close to the bus station and the train station, approximately 3 minutes from the bus station. Highly recommend 💫.Worth the price 👌 😁 X
- Bitoiu (9/5): Very good location for a trip to Venice. Definetly recomend! - The apartment has one bedroom and an open space living with kitchen. Is is very easy to reach the location from train station Venice - Mestre, about 5 minutes of walking - no need to take any transportation. The host contacted us the day before the arrival and provided us all the details for check-in and very kindly answered all our questions. The place is very clean and has everything you need. It easily can accomodate a family with 3 children. We were only 2 adults and a child.
Maybe some kitchen towels or some paper towel will be fine. And a hallstand for the umbrellas, jackets ... but we definetly managed without :).
And also, if you need any information, you can ask the host and will kindly help you with the answers.
Definetly will come back to visit again Venice and stay here.
- Nichamon (9/5): Nice and clean - Everything is very good and clean. The kitchen is well equipped. Also location is very good, near bus stop, supermarket and train station. The host is super active and helpful with well instruction on how to leave luggages before checking in. It’s on the top floor, so we need to carry our large luggages. Cannot find where to open heater in the toilet. It’d be better to have obvious instruction near it.
- Bilal (8/5): Very good - Clean, spacious and comfortable apartment. Also very close to the train station if you want to reach Venice in a few minutes. Technical issues in the shower and hard to get hot water.
- Magdalena (10/5): Fully recommended - Great location with fast connection to Venice neraby, fully equipped kitchen, comfy bed
- Jose (10/5): Happy to be un venice - Everything was great and how close to the train station it was
- Rainer (10/5): A apartment swap with a good friend who loved to decorate his apartment in Mestre. - Great apartment, which was great for travelling with kids. Kitchen was fully equipped, big bathroom, two double beds and a single. Staff was super helpful and was very helpful. Kids were exhausted from our first day in Venice and they loved coming back to the apartment. It was perfect.
- Gabriela (10/5): Perfect place in Venice, really clean, helpful host - This place was perfect for a visit in Venice. Next to the train station yet very quiet. Very clean and really well equipped with everything you may need. Parking space a big bonus if traveling by car. The host was very helpful.
- Gabriel (4/5): Disappointing - The location, it was really close to the train station. The room was not clean, after walking for 5 minutes you could feel all sorts of dirt sticking to your feet. The single bed and extendable sofa we not so confortable. On booking.com they said they have parking, but they do not have enough spots: 4 spots for 7 apartments.
- Vladimir (10/5): Exceptional -
- Maya (8/5): Very nice - Close to Bus & train station Miskitos
- Mark (9/5): overall very happy great location - clean and bright blinds in bedroom did not work arrangement of toilet in bathroom was challenging
- Merlin (10/5): Exceptional - Great apartment, all the needed amenities to fix meals and have cool, comfortable nights. Very clean, well maintained, everything we needed. Hot water was very sporadic. Luckily it was very warm outside, so a cool shower was ok.
- Janine (6/5): Pleasant - Place was clean
Easy access to bus terminal 3.rd.floor 6 flights of stairs.
Stair well not lit at night
- Svetlana (10/5): Exceptional -
- Britta (8/5): ideally located for trips to Venice - the property was very clean and well equipped. the description for accessing the property was clear and everything was as described. we could park amour car on the property, but the area seemed safe so that the car could have been parked on the streets as well.
the location of the property is ideal for trips to Venice. the train station is a 5 min walk away. and the tram station which can be used to go to Venice as well is a less than 10 min walk away. the property has very thin walls.
we travelled as a family of 5 and since we had just a stopover of 2 nights, but three of us slept on sofabeds which weren’t that comfortable and the apartment was quite packed by using the sofas as beds.
Tipps how to get cheapest to Venice would have been great - we found out, that we could have used the tram with our ACTV 24h ticket as well on our departure day. takes a bit longer, but could have saved money for the additional train fares.
- Vladimir (10/5): Exceptional - We got apartment no.7. on third flor.
Apartman was a nice and clean.
Kitchen have all what you need for cooking(pans, bowls, salt, oil, caffe, ....)
In bathroom there is all necessary.
We have had a small problem and contact Elisa, who have quick respond and we finde a solution for it.
Apartman is so close to railway station who goes directly to station in Venice. Price per person is 1.7euros in one direction and they are so often. One bad had a bad mattress.
But for night or two it can be used.
- Hsin (10/5): Exceptional -
- Grisha (10/5): Great apartment. Highly recommended - The hosts had provided everything possible that one would need for a few days of stay. Extremely thoughtful and clean place. and very convenient location. Close to the Mestre Train station and bus station. Unfortunately there is no lift. But of course this is not their fault. So headsup if you have heavy luggage.
- Danijela (10/5): Exceptional - The apartment is on good place Near is train station, bus station, grocery store, pharmacy… its quiet, good heating, kitchen well ocupaid…
- Faridah (9/5): Superb -
- Lisa (1/5): Bad - Proximity to the train station
I liked leaving! Everything except proximity to train station. Bed configuration was not as stated 2 beds instead of 3. Rude, unhelpful staff and owner when we complained that our 16 y old son and 14 yr old daughter couldn't sleep together. Told we may need to pay more Dusty and dirty walls. Red light area- very unsafe. Parking 'unavailable' Shower was abysmal hot and cold barely had water coming out. Tight narrow stairs hard to get to 2nd floor with luggage
- Nga (8/5): Very good -
- Paul (9/5): Superb - There was cooking oil and spices available . A well lit apartment with easy communications with the organiser and on a quiet road. Very good place. The local population of mosquitoes meant we needed to keep the windows closed but otherwise no problems.
- Sára (10/5): Exceptional - The location was amazing! Just 3 minutes away from Mestre train station, where every 5 minutes or so were trains to Venice (the ride was about 10-15 minutes)
Easy to find
Everything was super clean!
The kitchen and bathroom were fully equipped, so I wouldn't be afraid to stay for longer than 4 nights.
Bed was comfortable
The walls are thin, but there was no noise - it's not close that close to the main road and there are no bars/clubs/restaurants within 100 meters around the property - there are apartment blocks around.
Excellent communication with the host and coordinator
Would definitely book again No balcony (we knew that beforehand though)
Absolutely no pressure in the shower (the apartment is on the 3rd floor) Also, you moved the battery a little bit and it changed from freezing cold to boiling hot or vise versa.
The biggest downside was the mosquitoes! We killed 7 during our 4-night stay and I was bitten over 20 times. I understand that it isn't the host's fault entirely, but maybe installing nets into the windows would be helpful. And no, we didn't open the windows at nights with lights on....
- Dalila (9/5): Superb -
