Home truths
Air conditioning is only available in the bedrooms here.
Daily maid service is included when you stay here, with linen and towel changes every five days.
You'll find expensive furniture, artwork and ornaments in this home, so it's not suitable if you're travelling with children.
Given the home's central spot, expect to hear some street noise.
Parking in Venice can be tricky, so we recommend sticking to the easily accessible public transport where possible. We think the best way to see the city is by gondola.
This home is located within an apartment building, with a shared entrance. Expect to bump into other guests during your stay.
