The apartment is located on the top floor, but unfortunately, the elevator is only used for transporting items, not for guests. The shower had visible black mold, and the stone floor was not only uneven but had holes as well. The AC unit was extremely loud, and its filter was filthy. The apartment itself looked nothing like the photos; it was dark, dingy, and overall disappointing. We decided to leave a night early due to these poor conditions, but the owner refused to acknowledge our concerns and did not reimburse us for the night we didn’t stay.

Properly situated heart of the city

Air-conditioner at living room is not working. Air-conditioners at bedrooms have strange sound, di di sound, when operating. Cooker hood damaged and is not working. Hair dryer is not working that needs replacement by another one on the second day of stay. Timber floor planks at living room peel off that results in uneven floor level causing my wife fallen down many times. Water seepage and comes out from the timber flooring at living room. Rubbish on the floor of master bedroom.

It was a horrible experience staying in this property. The AC didn't work. When we called, they did nothing and then stopped picking up our phone. So basically if something goes wrong while you are there, you will have no one to even speak to (let alone them helping you). The bed had hair on the sheet so clearly they didn't change bed sheets after previous guests left. The room had a strange stink. You are better off staying some where else. Don't ruin your vacation by staying here.

Air con in the living room is not working and they couldn’t fix it during our three day stay.
3.6
Apartment was in poor condition. Sewage smell in living room. One of the bathroom the toilet was basically unusable as it was 5cm from the shower. There is a manhole in the living room which was in poor condition and this meant smells came into the apartment. The checkin policy was not flexible as we arrived 1 hour early and was told we only get the code at 3pm even though there was no one inside and cleaning.
3.6
Overall a pleasant stay and is a good apartment as a base to go and explore but wouldn’t stay if I had young children or wanted to be in the apartment for anything other than sleeping & showering.
Pros:
1. Property was in a great location; 20 mins from Rialto Bridge & 25 mins to St Marks square.
2. The apartment was very clean
3. beds comfortable
4. shower was hot
5. Could leave our luggage outside of the room (though not guarded / locked away)
Cons:
1. Toaster didn’t work
2. the apartment was quite dark
3. there were building works right outside of our apartment which we were not informed of earlier and because of how close the buildings were, they might as well have been in our apartment. This didn’t affect us on the whole however we had been travelling on the first day for several hours and wanted to get a few hours sleep which was just impossible.
4. Elevator didn’t work
5. Noisy in general (you could hear next door just walking around, never mind talking)

Listen up. The property was well kept. The check out was the worst experience me and my family had in our life’s. With all the change in hours from the USA we missed the time to check out. LISTEN UP we were thrown away to the streets with two little kids under 3 years old each. The cleaning lady walked in the worst mood , no education or humanity whatsoever. We had to get out that’s it. I felt homeless. In America someone would have called, charge us more money or any other solution. The way the situation was handled was inhumane.

Amazing apartment! Spacious, big beds, and very clean! Kitchen was amazing.

There is no lift and we had 6 suit cases ... Is not near the center is about 2 km.
Is nice and spacious.
They charge extra when you go to the office . They say is a fee for government.
You never speak with the owner is a office of who rents apartment. When you ask they tell you they dont know nothing you have to call the or write to the main office.

No big complaints, our family of 5 stayed there for 2 nights (in Apt 3) and everyone was satisfied, nice and clean and well located to to check ot the famous tourist areas of Venice. Not difficult to find the reception (which is next to Piazzale Roma) where we got very detailed printout with pictures making it very easy to find the apartment. The only complaint is that the web description and lots of mails said "Best Rialto Apartments With Lift" but the lift was locked with the note "only for staff" so I would recommend not using "With Lift" when advertising the apartment.

Pictures and text were mixed up on hotels.com, so we got another apartment than what we thought we had booked. We booked apt 4, but the pictures that said apt 4 turned out to bed from apt 3, and vice versa. Contacted the manager who put all blame on us, saying we made the mistake ourselves, even though we had printscreens from hotels.com showing that the pictures were from another apartment. Seems to be fixed and ok on the website now. Quite dark livingroom with really worn down sofa. Modern bathroom. Good heating, extra blankets available, many towels. Quite soundproof windows. Great location, quiet area close to restaurants, not far from Rialto and Maria del Friars. One of us woke up with many new insect bites every morning, hopefully just mosquitos although it looked like something else...
3.6
Horrible experience with the logistics of getting the apartment, waiting 2 hours under the rain for someone with the key, and on top of it they charged us 40€ more for a late check in when it was clearly their fault, I wouldent use this site again to do any bookings
3.6
Great apartment. Very clean.
3.6
Venice is a must!
3.6
Unit was dirty and offers no paper product amenities or soap. Rules overly restrictive and borderline ridiculous especially regarding use of air conditioning. Make sure you clarify payment method. If you want beautiful views of Venetian canals, spend more and stay at a hotel that isn't in an urban neighborhood.
3.6
We had apartment #4. No customer service. Found fresh blood stains on sheets. Internet only works in the hallway for rooms 1-4. Big electrical problems in this building. Main circuit breaker kept blowing(another renter showed us how to reset it). A/C broken in one room. All other apartment renters had similar problems. Washer and dryer didnt work. My first review was rejected and it was very detailed. There were to many headaches at this apartment. Dont let them spoil your beautiful vacation!
3.6
Generally shabby and nasty.
Didn't have hot water for a third of our stay.
3.6
Great location, very safe, and a bit removed from the busiest (and most overwhelmining) tourist regions of Venice. A very reasonable walk to make it anywhere in the city. Beautiful area.
3.6
Was very clean and in a good location, although not the easiest place to find. The rooms were spacious and generally good value for six people. There was a cute little balcony also which was nice, not an amazing view but not bad either, was nice and light. On the third floor with no lift, but this wasn't a problem for us, I enjoyed my stay and would use this place again, however beware of the 95 euro cleaning fee and the fact you can't check in until 3pm
3.6
Great apartment, spotless and roomy. Plenty of blankets and lots of towels for the whole visit. The girl who showed us to the apartment was very friendly and e-mailed us ahead of time to set up the meeting and gave us directions to the stop from the train station. She recommended some restaurants and grocery shops in the neighborhhood. Be aware there is a €95 cleaning fee per stay, which may significantly impact the nightly cost, especially for short stays. IMPORTANT: we needed cash to pay for the hotel, be sure to check total cost when you set up arrangements for meeting. Great location, few blocks from vaporetto stop, right in center of city. Loved it!
3.6
Great location. Away from the main tourist areas, but easy walk to all we wanted to see. We felt we were living in a neighborhood.
3.6
The accomodation was good but sofabed for extra 2 was so unstable the mate rests had to be put on the floor
Great value for money though and very secure
3.6
It is not suitable for families with small children due to the distance from the closest waterbus. Good only for people with very little luggage as you have to walk over many bridges to get there from waterbus stop. The best staff member is definitely Melania. She will go out of her way to help you.
3.6
Ideally situated for exploring Venice and not having family confined to hotel rooms. Everything of a reasonable standard. Although living area was very small.
Caught out (by not readng terms closely) that cash payment was required and deduction had not come from credit card as is usual with Expedia.
