    I cannot remember anything negative.

    Very good localisation.5 minutes from San Marco which meant I could go walking both in the early morning ( almost no tourists) and in the late evening when the atmosphere is very special. Close to Rialto Bridge ,Academia on foot and some other main points .Very good pizzeria and snack bar nearby. The room was absolutely very clean as well as the whole guest house.Every day someone used to come and change towels ,clean your room on demand.A nice bonus was a big bottle of cold water and some delicious snack waiting for us.I can higly recommed. The host stays in good touch with you and gives answers to all your doubts and questions,very helpful person with perfect English communication .

    Location was amazing. Annalisa was awesome. Comfortable bed, sufficient A/C. Really appreciated the shared kitchen area and ability to use hot water kettle for coffee and make some breakfast and refrigerator.

    Nothing here! It was great!

    The location was perfect! We were steps away from St. Mark’s and right next to the gondolas. It was clean, roomy, and perfect for us. I loved that we had a cold bottle of water waiting for us in the fridge and some treats left in our room. It was welcome after a long day of travel.

    Paper thin walls. I am not a fan of self check in. I was given instructions only the next day about using the kitchen facilities, the host mentioned that this will be improved by providing written instructions at check-in. The shower needs an update.

    Excellent location, very central in San Marco. The host sent me instructions ahead of time to facilitate my arrival. Decent size room with air conditioning. Very good Wifi.

    That we only stayed there for one night.

    The location was the first thing that attracted me to book it literallya 2 minute walk from Piazza San Marco. Secondary was the interior itself. An astounding apartment with classic looks merged with contemporary amenities. Would HIGHLY recommend this guest house, but please Ssshhhhh! Keep it to yourselves or it won't remain a hidden gem.

    Guests should be aware rooms were on 3rd floor, no elevator. Not a complaint, just a heads up. The single cot wasn't the most comfortable, but it was better than the plane seat on the trip over!!

    Location was amazing, right off St Marks piazza! Bathroom was spacious for 3 of us, we appreciated the communal kitchen to hold water, juice, make an espresso. Clean and easy to access. Loved Venice♡

    Location was VERY near to St Mark’s Piazza - it made everything so convenient if you want to start your day very early to beat the tourist queues OR if you want to stay out late to enjoy the piazza and atmosphere in the evening. Accommodation was very clean; bathroom facilities were great; and bed was comfortable. Host was very responsive and clear on instructions on how to check-in, where to eat, etc. Highly recommend staying here if you want the huge advantage of being close to St Mark’s, in the comforts of this truly hidden gem.

    The half shower door was hard to use without water leaking out of bathtub. It is noisy outside especially when folks are talking around 1-2 am.

    The room and bathroom were nice and clean. I never met the host, but she was easy to reach via What’s App.

    Noise from neighboring rooms

    We absolutely loved our stay at this charming little 3-room “hotel”. The location was perfect, the room beautifully styled, and Annalisa incredibly helpful. It really felt like a special find. The only reason we didn’t give it a full 10/10 is due to a bit of noise from neighboring rooms, likely due to thin walls or limited insulation. Still, it didn’t take away from the overall experience — we’d definitely come back!

    The property was located in a convenient place, making it easy to travel around. The room also had sufficient amenities and was not too cramped. Although we originally had concerns about safety, we encountered no issues even late at night, and each room door had a secure lock. Lastly, while we did not get to meet in person, the host (Annalisa) was lovely to speak to online, and she provided clear instructions and was friendly and responsive.

    Great location in the heart of Venice, close to many shops, bars and restaurants. Apartment was very clean. A bright and comfortable room plus a spacious en suite bathroom. There's also a very useful communal kitchen for guests to use. We appreciated the treats and tea/coffee facilities too! Host was very helpful and responsive.

    It was great value for money for our January stay in Venice. The room was comfortable, warm and clean. There's a kitchen with coffee machine, which was important to us. It's only a short walk from San Marco, just as described.
