Location was perfect for walking to the Venice Biennial, but it's further from Venice's main tourist attractions. Roberto was a wonderful host -- very kind, always checking to see if we needed anything. Full kitchenette, wifi, laundry washer (hang your clothes outside between the buildings to dry, Italian style!). Located in a quiet, everyday working-class neighborhood. Don't expect luxury, but we felt like we were living in a REAL neighborhood. Restaurants nearby. 12 minute walk to the vaporetto (water bus). 20 minute walk to the main tourist attractions (or take the wonderful vaporetto and live like a local!).

Apartment is smaller than appears in the pictures, but very functional. Tiny, tiny shower. Hopefully Roberto was able to fix the hot water control in the shower. If you want to stay in a more luxurious place that is central to Venice's tourist attractions, this is not for you. But if you want a real neighborhood experience that is fun and a bit rustic, you will live like a local here and love it. We did!

Very nice area to stay in, away from the big crowds and short walk to the 'coast' and the green park holding the art Biennale. Some stunning views of Venice from the coast and regular vaporettos (canal boats) for getting around Venice. Happy to stay here rather the more hectic centre of Venice and many lovely trattorias and osterias nearby, much calmer than Saint Marco. Owners of apartment showed an interest to help us and checked in with us to see how we were doing which was appreciated. Air-conditioning work effectively and helped with our midday siesta during the hotter hours. We were four people, and in the end we had enough space, although we spent more time exploring the city than resting at home. Would be a bit tight if you wanted to eat at home regularly

Nothing to complain. Slight mold on bathroom ceiling could be addressed in the long term, but it is within normal amounts

Perfect location! Very very close walk to central part and all main attractions. Just 2 mins away Via Garibaldi where you'll find so many restaurants with amazingly tasty food! Supermarkets, ice cream shops. Huge thank you and compliment goes to Roberto! Such a kind, lovely, attentive man! We arrived late at night as plane was delayed. That is no issue. He let us in, showed and explained everything regarding apartment. Every day he will text you to ask if he can be of any help. We travel a lot and he is the best host so far we met. If you are still thinking to book B&B Giardini, do not hesitate, book it NOW! You will love your stay!!! Thank you, Roberto ;-)

We traveled as a couple, and the apartment is very comfortable. The kitchen is fully stocked and has everything you need for a beautiful vacation. Roberto is a very attentive and friendly gentleman who helped us with everything we needed. The location was perfect for us. Venice is a city full of tourists, and staying in this area is much quieter. There are restaurants and supermarkets just a few blocks away, and St. Mark's Square is only a 15-minute walk along the coast. Grazie mille Roberto!

The apartment is located in a nice quiet area but still very near restaurants, coffee shops, supermarkets, the water taxi stations, and even a nice walking distance to piazza san marco. The apartment has nice air conditioning, sufficient amenities and also neat and clean — and the best part of it all is the hospitality and kindness of the owners Roberto and Emilia. They made sure we were comfortable, and so nicely adjusted their schedule when our flight was delayed and we could not check in the apartment at the appointed time. They would also check from time to time how we were doing and if we are enjoying Venice, which is really a nice gesture.

Nothing in particular — of course the property is a bit dated and old but that would be the same across most if not all apartments in Venice, that is part of the charm actually.

Robert was accommodating, polite, welcoming, and warm. He toured and detailed the property so we didn't miss anything. He was available via WhatsApp for any questions and responded quickly. The house itself is in nice and quiet lane, away from the hustle and bustle, and the never-ending tourists' noises. It is 20 steps away from a canal, across which is one of the few gardens in Venice. The ferry stop is 2 minute's walk away. It is a few ferry stops away from St. Marco Square (depending on which ferry you take). There is a Coop store and a fish store nearby. And lots of restaurants. The room was spacious. We could do a quick laundry and hang it Venetian style on the ropes outside. Roberto was also kind enough to give us the option to store our luggage after check-out, at no extra charge. He had complimentary coffee, coffee pot, tea, tea kettle and sugar ready for us so we did;t have to go grocery hunting the next morning.

We made coffee and one dinner at the house. Everything worked and went as expected. Only the exhaust fan didn't work. So the room got hot quite fast. We had to open the windows and blast the A.C.

The apartment is in a great location. Very close to all the attractions of Venice. We walked everywhere. There were cafes nearby that the locals use - and there were tasty breakfasts and even better coffee. The location of the apartment allowed you to mix with the permanent residents of Venice. The place was quiet, there is a park nearby where you could also relax. The host was a very nice person, he explained everything to us, but also there were a lot of different instructions in the apartment. On the main street via Garibaldi there were a lot of places with very good local food. It was a very enjoyable stay.

there were no such things that negatively affected our stay in any way

Clean and comfortable appartment with all that's needed for a short stay. Nice location away from the crowds of tourists, yet with all that's needed nearby - restaurants, shops etc, and close enough to walk to San Marco and with good ferry links. Wonderfully friendly and helpful host.

Nothing to mention.

Lovely old location close to ferry stops, restaurants, bars and coop grocers and Biennale Giardini park. Very clean, well equipped property, ideal for short breaks. Emilia and Roberto very welcoming, also able to leave our luggage in their store as late flight home.

Shower unpredictable, but fine if you follow the useful instructions. Otherwise excellent 😁

We loved the location. So quiet and surrounded by locals. Apartment had everything we needed for a mini break The owners are so helpful and friendly you know you can have good advice in any situation that arises

Shower is unpredictable. Otherwise everything else was good
