Quite central location in Venice
Great location in a not so touristy area compared to others. Nice property and very quiet given location.
Bed was so comfortable and aircon was good. Did have to keep pressing the max button to get it cold but no issues.
Great location

Great location
Centrally located near everything. The unit was a 5-10 minutes walk away from all the major Venice sights. The room was clean but lots of noise from its central location. Dishe cleanliness was not the greatest but otherwise, very clean. It advertises with free wifi but there are none to be found in the unit which affected my confort rating. Lots of planning goes in those trips nowaday, requiring reliable internet connection. There's no front desk as it is located 5-10 minutes away!
The apartment is directly on the Main Street. Excellent location. Easy to find. Close to almost everything. Dining, culture and shopping right out the door!
The apartment was not well looked after. Not very clean. We wore socks all the time as the floors were dirty and had damaged areas in many places. The walls showed lack of upkeep.
Mosquitoes seemed to appear all the time. There were some dead in the holes in the wall when we first entered. The bathroom was okay. Kitchen well supplied.

Great [lace to stay in Venice
The apartment was clean and spacious. It was well equipped with household items. The apartment was only a short walk to many main areas of Venice.
The host was very good at communication and made us feel welcome.
Highly recommend this place to anyone.

More information about checkin would have been nic
The apartment was very nice. We enjoyed the amenities and location. I was though very worried and felt the check in process was not the greatest. We arrived late in the evening due to a delay in our flight from Paris and it was nerve racking walking 10mins in the dark to punch in a code and find a key. A nice note would have gone along way seeing that the lock on the door is historic and took us 10minutes to figure out.
Good communication for check in process. Local fees paid via hyperlink sent via WhatsApp. Instructions were clear. We located the room easily.
The room itself, a 2 bedroom suite was comfortable. Good heating during the cold winter in November 2022. The kitchen had a dishwasher, laundry machine, pots and pans. Very convenient. The master bedroom had a working TV which was great for watching the world cup games.
I am giving this establishment an overall low rating due to the dirty state in which we received the room. The main bedroom had bugs smashed on the walls and floors were dirty all over the apartment. A short walk barefoot on the apartment proved to be a serious mistake. It looked as if this room received a very superficial clean job prior to our arrival. Thankfully linens and towels were clean.
We were provided a very small amount of toiletries which required a visit to the supermarket nearby on the same road.
What broke the camel's back (or my back I should say) was the master bedroom matteess which was too soft and indented. One rents a room for the main purpose of sleeping and unfortunately I was not able to do so comfortably. The mattress appeared to be two twin beds put together to make one bigger bed. I tried sleeping on both twin mattresses and they were just awful.
These challenges were reported promptly and subsequently ignored.
I could live with the dirty floors and walls... But not being able to sleep comfortably is not acceptable.
Loved the location, cleanliness, comfort level, and ease of booking. Would definitely recommend to anyone wanting to be near the action with some separation from the crowds of tourists.
Fantastic location. 5 minute walk to Rialto Bridge. 15 minute walk to train station. 12 minutes to St. Mark's Square. 7 minute walk to the bus for the alley and the islands. Tons of space. Fast internet.
Wonderful stay at prpperty. Open the apartmeny door and you are in middle of downtown. Ferry 1 & 2 stops not far away. Super AC in both rooms are big advantage. Kitchen is great. We enjoye a lot at this property. We will again book this property on our next trip to venice. Thanks Anna & Francesca for great hospitality. Cheers
Very good location and our room was right in front of Palazzo Vecchio. Claudia and the other lady who worked in the place were very welcoming and accommodating. Breakfast is served in the room every morning. Water and juice in the refrigerator were on the house and replenished daily. Very clean and spacious accommodation.
There were some molds in the shower that should be easy to clean.
Just be ready to carry your luggage through several flights of stairs.
The apartment is poorly maintained. Bathroom vent is covered with dust. Air conditioners do not work. Frying pan is dented badly. The most ridiculous thing is that guests are required to dump the trash after the stay. Finding the dumpsite is an impossible task as there is no physical dumpsite. You have to go to a certain pier at a certain time to wait for the trash boat to come by. I would advise against choosing this apartment.
Excellent place to stay in Venice. The property is close to all the places of interest. It's the closest thing be living as a local resident,with accessibility to supermarket and local artisan shops. We would definitely stay in this apartment the next time we visit Venice again.
The staff is super friendly,especially, Francesca who suggested the best places to go around Venice besides the touristy areas.
Fantastic location, extremely spacious, excellent kitchen facilities and spotlessly clean. The shower had great pressure and the heating was easily controlled with a thermostat. They even provided a bedside crib for our 5 month old which was comfy and looked brand new.
Location was great
Property was clean and comfortable.
The best part of this place was how the girl was so helpful and communicative with us. She gave us a map that highlighted the popular areas to visit and the places she recommended for us to eat. We wouldn’t have been able to get around without that Map! I commend them for that.
The only downfall was the city tax fee and cleaning fee that they charged us the moment we arrived the property. It might have been in the fine print somewhere but we were definitely surprised and discouraged. It should definitely be included the moment you pay your dues through Expedia.
Overall great stay.
Nice little flat where we enjoyed a pleasant stay. We mostly self-catered as there are several bakeries and two small supermarkets within a very short walk. Handy for Rialto, Fondamenta Nuove, and SAnta Sofia Traghetto over the Grand Canal to San Polo & Santa Croce districts. Small kitchen but OK for two. Microwave and Nespresso pod coffee machine included in kitchen. We were on second floor so two flights of stairs to negotiate. TV only in living room; would have been nice to have one in the bedroom too. Sofa bed in living room was not very comfortable for evening TV watching. Kettle didn't work very well, it kept switching off before it boiled. We met the staff at 'Al Portico' guesthouse, approx half-way to Casa delle Ortensie from the bus station.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
If you can arrive and check in the hotel, it would be an average old room. It’s about 15 min walk from the train station unless you are well aware of water taxi stations. Washing machine was broken and refrigerator was really small, one or two bottles of water would be OK. I was very disappointed.
