Perfect location to visit the Biennale. Clean and quiet with great views over Canal St Pietro. Pictures are accurate, so you will notice there are no comfortable chairs in the living room, but extra beds.
Gracious hosts were helpful and met us at the water taxi. Very large space with air conditioning. There was a good view of the canal. We appreciated it was in a neighbourhood a bit away from the tourist chaos at San Marco.
Perfect place to stay. Giampiero and Sonia are great, and their place is beautiful. Lovely peaceful neighbourhood. Hosts couldnât have been more helpful, collecting us from vaporetto and everything.
Very convenient location close to the water and water taxi stations. Its located in a quiet part of the city which provides much needed reprieve. The apartment is well equipped with a washer dryer and air conditioning which was very much needed in the heat and humidity. The couple hosting us were absolute sweethearts and responded promptly. Would definitely be coming back for a second visit.
The entire stay was absolutely terrific. No major issues short of the bathroom shower, which for seniors is slightly troublesome.
The hot water is an âon-demandâ system with hot water availability limited.
Other than that it was homey and comfortable.
Thank you to both Sonia & Giampiero for their courtesy and aid.
This is a light and airy large apartment with all the necessary amenities, except soap. Although I was travelling alone, this spacious apartment could easily sleep 6 people. Safety and security was also not an issue. I felt very safe walking around the neighborhood. It was nice to come "home" to a calm and quiet part of the city. Everything you need is within close walking distance on Garibaldi - restaurants, groceries, pharmacy, bank, shops, etc. The water bus is a 5 minute walk away. Staying in this apartment, away from the hustle and bustle of tourists, allowed me to feel as if I was a Venetian, not just a visitor. I loved it!
The apartment is wel located in the quiet quarter Castello. Splendid view on San Pietro, marvelous light with 4 windows above the canal.
Small supermarket around the corner, bakery at the corner and the typical real Venetian ristorante Alle Nuova Speranzza at walking distance on Campo Ruga. Situated between Arsenale and Giardini, it's the ideal location to visit the Biennale. Ten minutes walk to Vaporetto stops Arsenale (boat from/to airport) and Giardini makes it also easy to connect with the rest of Venice. Also a few blocks away from the lively Via Garibaldi where you can also have a late drink at Refolo!
Friendly and easy welcome. Good communication and reliable financial arrangement.
