8.0“Historic private and comfortable studio”
+Absolutely amazing accommodations for a history lover. The building is a palazzo apparently divided into private dwellings. The studio itself has windows overlooking a small side canal and the square on the other side, which helps with bringing fresh air throughout the day. You can hear gentle water sounds, boat traffic, birds, church bells, and even live opera singing with the windows and shutters open. The building sways almost imperceptibly from the gentle waves hitting its foundation. Medieval checkerboard stone tiles, and what appears to be the original hearth and ceiling with exposed wooden beams darkened with age. Down the stairs to the courtyard you'll find medieval weapons and armour on the walls, and a small boat launch that is currently gated off; the waves lap at the stone steps. You are just a couple of minutes walk from the Giglio Vaporetto dock, from shopping, bistros and fine dining, and a ten minute walk from Sant Marcos Square. The bed is comfortable and I slept like a rock there from the gentle swaying of the building and a reasonably dark and quiet room thanks to the heavy metal exterior shutters over the windows. The kitchenette is very basic, with a sink, smal
−The kitchenette could have a bit more such as table settings for two for couples who come through and a frying pam. Towels could use replacing, smelled of mildew with perfume to try and cover up the smell. Windows over the canal also meant a hoard of hungry mosquitoes coming inside, worse in the morning and evening. Window netting would be a benefit so the windows can be kept open for fresh air. While there is an air conditioner available, it must be kept above 25° C to keep it from overheating. It didn't do much for the humidity but it did circulate air a bit on a hot stuffy night. However, these were minor complaints compared to the delight of staying in a very special and unique building. I would absolutely stay there again.

5.0+The location of the apartment is very central.
−We regret to say that, despite its attractive location, we cannot recommend this accommodation. First, we were charged a €40 late check-in fee, which we found unreasonable. While we understand late arrivals are inconvenient, accommodating guests who travel globally is part of hospitality. Many accommodations offer lockboxes for accessibility. The main issue was the condition of the apartment: dirty floors, heavily worn bed linens, foul-smelling towels, and a disgusting kitchen sponge. These objective cleanliness flaws have been mentioned in other guest reviews. In hindsight, we should have heeded these warnings. Venice rentals may not always offer the highest standards, but this property’s value for money is simply unsatisfactory. We would not stay here again.

9.0+I loved this little apartment. It was in a fabulous location and was really cute and cosy. I had a very comfortable stay. Jacopo was a responsive and helpful host.
−Maybe the apartment needed a few more basics in the kitchen but it was fine for one person.

8.0+Good location, super easy communication with admin.
−The room needs a bit of attention and fixing, nothing major but it’s the details that make the difference. ( ex bathroom door hinges, etc) The interior/room feels improvised in a haste right now and it has potential to be amazing.

9.0“Evocative, comfortable, convenient and issue-free.”
+Very good, clear instructions on access and prompt attention on arrival. Unique property, felt safe and was comfortable, and would definitely look to stay again if I return to the city.
−Unfortunately the shower fitting was damaged, which made showering awkward. Would also be improved with a microwave.

5.0“Alles is er, maar wel krakkemikkig en niet echt schoon”
+De ligging
−Niet schoon, contactdozen die loshangen. Airco die steeds vastloopt en veel muggen omdat het raam dan open moet

9.0+Palazzo splendido e ottima posizione
−Cucina molto poco attrezzata e lenzuola non di cotone. La pulizia potrebbe essere più accurata.
