Guest Reviews
- Sezen (10/5): -
- Emre (8/5): -
- Lavinia (10/5): Super 🤍 - Este foarte bine poziționată. Aproape de toate punctele de interes. Este bine dotată, iar gazdă foarte amabilă A fost un pic cam frig
- Florencia (10/5): - Espectacular todo, desde la atención hasta el apartamento. Muy cómodo, muy buena ubicación y completo.
- Roger (10/5): Buena ubicación, vista muy bonita a un jardín y amplio espacio para grupos familiares de hasta 6 personas. - Bien ubicado, amplio y cómodo. Quizá las camas podrían mejorar.
- Yuichi (10/5): - 色々なところで気を遣ってもらえている配慮を感じることができた。
清潔だし快適だった!
オーナーさんも、困った際にはすぐ対応してもらえたので助かった。 チェックアウトの際、カギを返却したあとにエントランスのドアの開け方がわからず、閉じ込められたかと焦った。
カギの返却方法と一緒に、ドアの開け方も説明があると安心かも。
- Maria Everalda (8/5): Relação custo benefício ótima - Sem oferta de café da manhã, a localização muito boa.
- Stephen (10/5): - The property was very clean and comfortable for our group. Easy to get to all of the sites and close to a dock for the vaporetto drop off and pick-up. We enjoyed our stay at this property and Venice.
- Romaina (6/5): Fair - Location Needs a spring clean and toiletries to be provided
- elena (6/5): - ubicacion
- Chloe (10/5): Très agréable personnel adorable - Très propre
- Andrea (10/5): Un lugar genial - Nos ha encantado la atención, lo céntrico y lo bonito del apartamento
- Jean-François (9/5): -
- B (8/5): Très bon séjour, quelques points d'amélioration - Bonne communication avec les hôtes. Et nous avons beaucoup apprécié les petites attentions (bouteille d'eau et boisson au frigo, biscuits pour le petit déjeuner, etc.). Nous avons bien dormi, et bébé également a bien dormi dans son lit. Point d'amélioration : le lit était préparé avec un drap intermédiaire au lieu d'une housse de couette. Pour un sommeil plus paisible et aussi d'un point de vue hygiénique, une housse complète serait bien plus appréciable qu'un simple drap. Autre chose : nous sommes restés 4 jours et un aspirateur dans l'appartement aurait été appréciable surtout pour le tapis à poils longs.
- Sanjay H (6/5): - Bed not comfy, space constraints for keeping bags, a bit too tight bathing cubicle…
- Barb “thebarb” Ales (10/5): - Fuimos 6 personas (niños, padres y 3 abuelos) nos sentimos muy cómodos. Son dos pisos por escaleras pero eso no es inconveniente. El departamento muy limpio, linda distribución y una buena cocina.
- SEVIN (10/5): A recommander sans hésiter Super séjour dans un appartement très bien organisé et très bien situé. Très bon accueil - La position dans Venise : extra pour faire à pied.
- IVAN MAURICIO (10/5): Me encantó! - Irene es muy amable una gran host nos ayudó con todo éramos 10 personas en dos apartamentos y nos recibió perfecto, super recomendando en limpieza, cercanía y host
- Anne-Mari (10/5): -
- Josephine (10/5): A wonderful stay with stunning views and every detail taken care of. - Our stay in Venice was wonderful from start to finish. From the moment we arrived at Venezia Santa Lucia Train Station, our host was in constant communication, providing clear directions with helpful pictures and instructions that made finding the apartment completely stress-free. She was always available to answer any questions and offered a wealth of information about the area, which made navigating Venice so much easier.
The apartment itself was clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully stocked with espresso pods, crackers, and locally made jam—such a nice touch that made our first hours there even more welcoming. The host also provided maps and an informative packet with tips and guidance, which we found very helpful throughout our stay.
The beds were comfortable, and we thoroughly enjoyed many breakfasts and coffees on the balconies, soaking in the amazing views. The apartment truly felt like a home away from home, and my family and I loved every moment of our stay. We couldn’t have asked for a better base to explore Venice! Honestly, everything was spot-on—couldn’t have asked for a better stay!
- Maximiliano Marinelli (10/5): - La ubicación, la limpieza, el equipamiento y calefacción. Además Irene nos atendió de manera excepcional. Divina. No hubo nada que no nos haya gustado. El departamento y sus instalaciones son excelentes.
- Fabio Orazio (9/5): Ottimo alloggio!! - Appartamento (primo piano) ampio, confortevole, pulito e silenzioso. Bellissima la zona relax esterna per rilassarsi dopo una giornata in giro per le calli veneziane. Gestori gentili e disponibili anche in modalità "a distanza". nulla

- Tuba (8/5): -
- Annamaria (10/5): 10/10 - Location is great, very central, close to the Grand Canal and to many attractions, restaurants, shops, but at the same time also in a quiet area. Accomodation is beautiful, we even had 3 balconies! Apartment had everything we needed. The host Irene was very helpful and gave us instructions how to get from the bus stop Piazzale Roma to the apartment, which made travel a lot easier for us. 10/10 would recommend and would book again in the future!
- Arrieta (9/5): -
- Guilherme (10/5): Great apartment - Great apartment, very well located—away from the big crowds but close enough to walk to the main sights of the city (we were with a 10-month-old baby and a 3-year-old child, most of the time carrying one in a baby carrier and the other in a stroller). Irene was a wonderful host and was always available to help us. We would definitely stay in this apartment again. Everything was great :)
- Serbülent (7/5): - Konumunu sevdik, ev sahibi çok yardımsever ve ilgiliydi. Mekan temizdi. Rezervasyonda gösterilen fotoğraflarda gösterilen olanaklarla, kaldığımız odanın olanakları aynı değildi. Fotoğraftakilerden farklı bir odayla karşılaştık.
- Elena (10/5): -
- Luisa (9/5): -
- Shirley (10/5): Beautiful apartment in quiet area of Venice - Beautiful apartment in a lovely safe quiet area. Very convenient for St Marks Square etc. The apartment was really clean, warm and had the basics of tea, coffee, condiments etc available. Lovely restaurants just a few minutes walk away. Host was really responsible and Lovely. Highly recommend. Nothing
- Roberto Rocco (10/5): Gran estadía en barrio privilegiado de Venecia - - La amabilidad, calidez y comprensión de Irene no solo para enviarme las indicaciones para llegar al apartamento (la llegada no es tan fácil) y obtener las llaves, sino además para permitirme hacer un check-out más tarde luego de un imprevisto.
- La ubicación del apartamento, que nos permitió caminar hacia los puntos turísticos más importantes que teníamos en la agenda.
- La calidez del apartamento, se nota que se preocupan de cada detalle, desde la limpieza, iluminación y calidad de muebles, ropa de cama y toallas hasta esperarnos con té, café y galletas.
Muchas gracias Irene! Nada, encontré todo espectacular y si vuelvo a Venecia de seguro me quedo aquí mismo. Muchas gracias Irene!
- gabriela (8/5): -
- Bibiana (8/5): - It was cosy and easily accessible 😎 The stairs is a bit too much especially during check in and check out. The lower floor might be more conducive. Thank you anyway for your hospitality.
- Lynlada (9/5): -
- Teona (9/5): -
- Eric (9/5): -
- Lorenzo (10/5): - Ottima posizione, corte interna carina.
- Sandra (10/5): Veramente incantevole. Alloggio al di sopra delle aspettative. - Tutto. Posizione, pulizia e la tipologia della stanza. Accolti con panettone e bottiglia per brindare all'anno nuovo. Le foto non rendono al meglio la struttura, che dal vivo è molto meglio. La signora che ci ha seguito si è resa disponibile per ogni richiesta e domanda. Ci ha consentito il check in anticipato. Immobile in zona silenziosa. Nulla
- Jesus (10/5): - Supper location in Venice and best support and communication from Irene and her mother.
100% recommended!
- Jess Werner (9/5): - El depto estaba bien, a unos 10-20 mins de las principales atracciones de Venecia. Luminoso y muy calentito (es invierno). Lo único más o menos era la señal de wifi, el resto todo súper bien!
- Amiraly_akila (10/5): - Irena notre hôte nous a chaleureusement accueilli et fut très serviable .
Et nous a même gâtés le 24 déc en nous offrant des panetones de Noël.
Les appartements étaient très bien équipés , il ne manquait rien, bien chauffés et très confortables tout étant super propres.
L’emplacement exceptionnel, proche de tous les points touristiques et à 5 mn à pied du vaporeto menant à l’aéroport , super pratique .
De plus, de nombreux commerces se situaient autour de l’immeuble.
À recommander absolument ! Rien à signaler

- Vaclav (10/5): Wonderful, comfortable, clean appartement close to the city centre - Wow, this was so great. Beautiful appartement at the walking distance (15 minutes) from the St. Mark Square (or you can use the water bus - the station is 3 minutes walk). The appartment was completely equipped, 100% clean, comfortable, everything was working well and there even was a snack ready to eat.
- Lisa (10/5): The accommodations totally met our needs and Irene could not have been more helpful. - Irene was a wonderful host. We were pretty uneducated about the water buses and she was very prompt answering our questions and lining up a water taxi for us when needed. It was all good.
- Jenifer (10/5): Perfect apartment for a Venice stay. - This apartment exceeded expectations. It was beautiful, exceptionally clean and well laid out. The owner was thoughtful enough to leave a bottle of water and some little snacks to greet us. It was a perfect location, Although It is on the third floor with no elevator it is worth it!! To truly give a feeling of how wonderful this apartment was -- I have problems climbing stairs, but I would gladly stay there again. This apartment is charming and beautiful with three terraces! The stairs to get to the third floor with heavy suitcases.
- Tomasz (9/5): - 1. Contact with the property owner.
2. Location Creaking apartment door
- Alivia (10/5): Great Location for Families in Venice - Great location in Venice. Our family enjoyed our stay for an evening — just what we needed. Plus the host was very kind and welcoming. I highly recommend.

- Stanislava (9/5): -
- Martina (10/5): -
- knudsen (9/5): - Rent,ryddig,og sentralt Litt vanskelig å låse/åpne døra. Litt tynne dyner
- Marta (7/5): Tutto perfetto, tranne l'insonorizzazione (assente) degli appartamenti - L'appartamento è situato in una zona comodissima vicino al ponte dell'Accademia, a Punta della Dogana e Palazzo Grassi, in un quartiere molto tranquillo e con un sacco di cose da vedere (negozi, ristoranti, bacari). La struttura è molto grande (ideale per gruppi di amici o famiglie numerose) e la ragazza che ci ha accolti è stata molto cordiale e disponibile. Purtroppo è previsto un solo bagno (essendo l'appartamento molto grande si presume venga scelto più da comitive, ma con un bagno solo c'è da aspettare un po' il proprio turno in caso). Altra pecca, il rumore: la struttura non sembra insonorizzata affatto bene e la notte siamo stati svegliati alle 5 dalle persone che alloggiavano nell'appartamento al piano di sopra (che hanno continuato a fare molto, molto rumore fino alle 6 e mezzo/7). Se la struttura non può garantire il riposo di chi ci alloggia in termini di insonorizzazione, almeno potrebbe essere lasciato un invito/richiesta di rispettare il silenzio in certe fascia orarie: non è un granché trovarsi in vacanza nel weekend dopo una settimana di lavoro e non riuscire a dormire per i troppi rumori.
- Juan (9/5): Cómo estar en casa! - Excelente atención de Irene, nos permitieron guardar el equipaje unos minutos antes del check in y unas horas después del check out. El apartamento huele súper bien, te hace sentir en casa, es muy acogedor y se cuidan mucho los detalles. Su ubicación es buena. En otra visita a Venecia, sin duda alguna me hospedaría de nuevo en ese apartamento. Las escaleras hasta el segundo piso.
- Valentin (9/5): -
- Edvinas (10/5): -
- Ariane (10/5): Es war sehr schön Wir kommen gerne wieder - Super sauber und sehr nett
- Rafael (10/5): -
- Sima (10/5): - We had a wonderful time at the apartment. As a diabetic, I really appreciated the well-equipped and organized kitchen, which allowed me to prepare my own meals. The apartment was clean, cozy, and comfortable – perfect for a relaxing stay.
- Philip (9/5): Un emplacement parfait. - Un appartement parfaitement placé dans Venise, très lumineux et agréable.
- Ian (10/5): Wonderful apartment from which to explore Venice - An excellent apartment in Venice for a family of five staying for a few nights as part of an interrailing holiday. The owner had provided clear instructions on how to get from the Venezia S. Lucia train station to the apartment which was really appreciated with our heavy backpacks. The apartment was well situated, just a 10-15 minute walk from many of the main tourist attractions in Venice, making it an excellent base from which to explore the city. There were plenty of good restaurant options near by too. The beds were comfortable, and the washing machine was very much appreciated.
- Axel (9/5): Der Preis ist für Venedig angemessen, super Lage, sehr zu empfehlen. - Zentrale Lage und gut organisiert Alles ok
- Andrea (10/5): -
- Nadia (10/5): -
- Wood (10/5): Exceptional -
- Qinghua (9/5): Nice cozy place - Good location, three balconies and two bathrooms A lot of stairs to get there
- Rahul (9/5): Superb - Proximity to all key attractions and to taxi stop. Apt is next to a private property that has a good landscape and gives a good view (not seeing adjacent property)
- Mary (10/5): Amazon! - Very clean, organized and accessible to everything none
- Brian (10/5): Great Appartment -
- Hangyul (10/5): Our host was very attentive with great detailed directions sent to us via WhatsApp and allowing us to store our luggage - Good location off of sant’angelo actv stop close to a lot of attractions We didn’t mind but if mobility is a problem might not be a good fit for those who can’t climb some flights of stairs. Wouldn’t recommend big luggage as there are no elevators
- Abhitanshu (9/5): Superb - Location was perfect. We were a bg group of 9 people and we enjoyed a lot. Host was really nice and helpful. She helped a lot with local recommendations and transport.
- Mee (10/5): Excellent apartment and owner. Highly recommended! - The location was great, and the place was clean. The owner was really thoughtful — they provided a simple breakfast with bread and jam, which most apartments don’t do. It rained during our stay, and they had umbrellas available for us to use. Even though these were small things, they made us happy because of the owner’s care. They were also willing to extend our checkout time, though I guess that might depend on whether someone else is booked for the next day. I met the lovely owner, and she even showed us a different route to the station to avoid paying for the gondola It’s not something I dislike, just a suggestion .At first, I thought there was only one dustbin provided, but we later discovered that an additional dustbin was stored inside the cabinet. It would be better to place the extra dustbin in a more visible location.
- Moba (10/5): Exceptional -
- Moba (10/5): Exceptional -
- Xi (10/5): Exceptional - It’s equipped really well with everything necessary. Super convenient and comfortable. Checkin is well organised and with photos to locate the apartment. Could not be better! We hope to come back again. Excellent. Nothing to complain about
- Angela (8/5): Great value, comfortable property in fabulous location. - Amazing location, comfortable beds, good communication. The property would be great for 4 people but we are a family of 6 and we all felt cramped.
- Ana (8/5): Very good -
- Arjmand (7/5): Good -
- Audrey (10/5): Wonderful trip with even better service! - The apartment and balconies were even lovelier than pictured! It’s very quiet for being so close to everything. I want to especially thank the hosts for their hospitality; the directions on how to get to/in the apartment were extremely clear and they went as far as making an extra bed for us when we needed one, which was greatly appreciated. 10/10 experience overall, thank you for making our short excursion an amazing one :) No negatives for us! Just be aware that getting to the top apartment involves a lot of stairs, if you have issues with mobility.
- Vera-karina (9/5): Superb -
- Rekha (10/5): Exceptional - A really comfortable apartment in a fantastic location, just a few minutes walk from St Marks Square and many other visitor attractions.
- Craig (8/5): Great stay for our family in Venice - Great location in Venice. Well equipped accommodation and lovely to meet the host. She even left us a gift of a Panettone which was lovely. Plenty of room for the 5 of us. A great stay.
- Pierrei (10/5): Perfect place to stay in Venice! Quiet neighborhood, walking distance to Rialto & Piazza San Marco - The location was perfect, short boat ride from Venezia Sta. Lucia main station, within walking distance to Rialto and Piazza San Marco. Many restaurants and mini groceries nearby. Our host was there to help us check in and showed us around the apartment, she also gave us helpful info about where to eat and buy groceries, and how to get to the famous tourist spots around Venice. She replies very fast and is very helpful. The property was pristine and in great condition, everything we needed was available including condiments in the kitchen. Thank you so much! Nothing. It was perfect.
- Sharon (10/5): The property is beautiful. We stayed at the top 4th floor. We had 3 balconies, masters bedroom, the kitchen and the livi - The property is beautiful. We stayed at the top 4th floor. We had 3 balconies, masters bedroom, the kitchen and the living room. It is in a quiet and safe neighborhood. Elevators are not available so if you cannot take the stairs then choose the lower floors. We did not mind the 4-level climb as it served as our exercise to burn all those calories from eating delicious pizzas and pastas. Everything is Fabulous! Molto Bello Bellisimo!
- Rino (10/5): Perfect place to stay in Venice - everything perfect
very friendly host and very calm during the night, even on new years eve. The apartement is spacious and perfect for a family of up to six or a group of friends.
- Novita (10/5): Exceptional -
- Nikolay (3/5): NOT RECOMMENDED - Uncomfortable stay and inadequate communication with host - Location and price were good. NOT RECOMMENDED
Yes, location and price were good - everything else was not, and the host is really not accommodating or understanding.
## The heating issue and the host's odd solution
Upon arriving, the rooms were freezing (it was a cold day). The air-cons were not working and some of the remotes were out of batteries. When we called the host she said - 'the remotes are interchangeable' - not a great answer - imagine having to pass a remote between four rooms spread over two floors for a single remote. The host finally agreed to come and bring batteries for the remotes, and the air-cons started working after one hour of idling - apparently this is a known issue, but we had no idea. Ideally guests can be informed (even better would be if the air-cons were actually switched on so they can start working when guests arrive, instead of freezing rooms for one hour).
## The construction work and the host's unresponsiveness
One of the mornings, at 07:40, we all got woken up by extreme noise (drills, pneumatic hammers etc) from construction work. We went out to look around, turns out they are renovating the neighbouring part of the building (a hotel or something). This is probably good information to tell guests, as people might expect to be able to rest. The rooms were completely unusable this day due to the noise.
When we contacted the host, she said she had no idea of this, because she doesn't live there. All neighbours and businesses around knew about the big hotel renovation going on. Was there no notice, and isn't there some responsibility of a host to know what's going on at their property? What if there was no electricity due to planned engineering work, was she going to just say "I don't live here, I didn't know". It's just ridiculous. We were there 2.5 days, and one of them the rooms were unusable.
## Other things
- Very low shower water pressure.
- Maita (9/5): Excellent. - Cleanliness. Location and staff is very good Nothing. Except some problem of heating .
- Igor (10/5): Exceptional -
- Vincent (10/5): Exceptional -
- Filippa (9/5): Great location. Impeccable host. Would absolutely stay here again. - Great location 'smack in the middle' of everything. Apartments are neat and clean, with most things you'll need for a short stay, including a sweet little welcome treat. Easy check in. Very communicative host. Irene was wonderful and went above and beyond to accommodate us. She helped us move units when the unit we first had reserved did not work for our family. She even mailed my husband's jacket back which had been forgotten in a closet. We had originally booked the lower floor unit, which we discovered at check in had a distinct mold smell. This may not bother some guests, but is an issue if you have allergies. The host very graciously assisted us in moving to a higher floor unit, which did not have any issues.
- Christiane (2/5): I do not recommend this place - Location suited my plans for the stay.
Shower produced hot water as needed
Adequate amount of fresh towels Both beds were a disaster: terrible old flimsy mattresses and the lumpiest pillows one can imagine.
The beds a real problem.
We paid $2000 but landlord said we should get our own toilet paper. Really?
There is no safe place to leave suitcases on day of departure, once checked out of the room. They stay in a hallway where other guests and their guests pass through; no security.
- Ellen (10/5): Lovely, perfect location - The location was close to everything but also quiet. A gorgeous apartment with multiple balconies and everything you need! Loved being on the top floor. Would 100% stay there again. Irene was great, met us there and helped with questions. Thank you so much. Nothing!
- Mircea (9/5): Superb - Irene was an incredibly helpful host, offering excellent restaurant recommendations and insightful tips for exploring Venice. The apartment is in a prime location, conveniently situated next to a small shop. It was clean and well-prepared for our arrival, with keys easy to collect. A week after our stay, I needed an invoice for my expenses, and Irene promptly provided it. Thank you for a wonderful experience in Venice!
