  : The Castello neighborhood is a great place to stay great food and great prices. Its away from the tourist zones so all the food and amenities in the area are local price. Love that its on the Fondamenta canal, the little kitchen space with the windows was great, very picturesque. Close to many vaparetto stops to get anywhere.
  : Up 3 flights of stairs, not that its a bad thing I just dont know if that was advertised. The cleanliness was meh, the place needs a fresh coat of paint or something in the rooms. Dirty walls. Also when we arrived the bathroom still had leftover hair and bath products in the shower, so it was likely not cleaned. Appears to have some black mold?

  : The apartment was a short walk to restaurants, in a quieter area of Venice. The beds were comfortable, and the temperature of the apartment was well-regulated. Their was a slight problem when we arrived, but the situation was fixed promptly when we informed management. We enjoyed our stay and would recommend the apartment!
  : Kitchen was not stocked with "essentials", so we had to buy a fair amount of supplies for our weekend stay (i.e. coffee and sugar, oil for cooking, there was salt, but no pepper, etc). Also, no dishcloths or dishtowels, which makes it difficult to keep kitchen tidy (a sponge and one dishwasher tablet was provided).

  : We liked the neighbourhood. Good local shops with locals and cheap places to eat.
  : The main things is that the apartment is at the top of a 1.5 flight of stairs which is made of stone. There is no landing at the top of the stairs so you have to open the door from about 2 steps beneath the door which is difficult when you have shopping or in our case a buggy and a baby.No plug for the sink.Microwave doesn't rotate.Laundry inaccessible Not great for younger children as no cot and no bar on lower bed.Quite creaky doors so, frustrating when wanting to move around when children asleep. Flat seems to slope to the left! Bed in main room on a slant.Bidet doesn't work which I thought was quite important for the ItaliansCould have provided more generous shower gels. (4x 20ml between 4)Shower cubicle quite rusty TV only on Italian

  : The location was amazing! Loved the residential neighbourhood it was in but still close enough to get to all the sites. The AC worked very well and was needed during the heatwave.
  : The couch in the living room could be replaced with something a bit more comfortable.

  : Very well equipped apartment to make a comfortable stay. Location-wise, far from the main attractions, but in a very nice and not crazy busy neighbourhood with mostly local people. It was very quiet during nighttime, ideal for sleeping.
  : Property is marketed as "sea view" and there's no such, the view is to a local canal and the neighbourhood. Stairs to access the property are very narrow, with large luggage is a bit tricky to access, should be mentioned at least in the document with the instructions and rules sent by the host.

  : The location was quite good, the house was big enough for 3 people. They had a nice living room with interesting books to read. The kitchen was well equipped with utensils and machines.they were also very prompt in helping out.
  : The house seemed overpriced for 2 nights,, the blanket had red stains on it, the towels weren't too clean on the first day until they helped provide the replacement, the stairway also was a bit unclean when we arrived.

  : I liked the location. A/C in bedrooms are new and working great. Kitchen is well equipped. Shower was spacious and good water pressure.
  : When we arrived, the a/c in living room.was not working. This made for a very hot afternoon/evening. I did not receive a response to this until the next day and it was too late for us to have workers come and fix it. Beds are not very comfortable and sofa is worse, you sit on it and slide off. Pillows are so old and terrible for neck.

  : Fantastic location, close to the Biennale and good walking distance to the center. Lovely views over the canals. Apartment was cosy, the host was easily reachable and very helpful.
  : The sofa bed in the living room could do with an upgrade as it was very uncomfortable. There could have been extra bathmats.
