Grazia was wonderful. She was very helpful and cordial. The accomodations at Palazzo Benzon were great. What a location!! The windows on the canal were a marvelous bonus! The no hassle attitude made our stay very enjoyable. As far as I'm concerned its the only way to stay in Venezia!! ... Outstanding!!! We had a great time, and were very comfortable. Quiet neighborhood was a plus! ... Easy. No hassle. Couldn't have been easier! ... All facilities; groceries, restaurants, shopping, and transportation were close by. You need to emphasize the convenience of staying at Palazzo Benzon. ... If you go to Venice, don't stay anywhere else. Palazzo Benzon gives you the true Venetian experience at a comfortable price!

My friends and I had a great time in Venice and the flat was perfect. We could not have asked for more. Excellent location!! ... Excellent location just off San Marco Square. The flat was very nice with plenty of room. The quality of hotel you would get for the price of this flat would be of much lower quality. I highly recommend this flat.

Area is a little noisy early in the morning due to proximity of markets; this should be pointed outon web site. Otherwise excellent value for money ... We were allowed to leave our bags during the day for no charge which was an excellent additional service ... See above ... very good location; excellent value

The only reason no one greeted us was because we were early, but we called and they accomodated us very well. ... The apartment needed a little work, but it was all worth it for the location. We were very happy with the accomodations. ... For the price, we couldn't have asked for more. ... No. ... Spacious apartment. Unbelievable location and view. Definitely worth the money.

I did not get directions from your website. Instead Grazia emailed them to me - they were good ... No staff during stay ... We did not 'check out' - we just left ... A good flat for visiting Venice, comfortable but not a flat to spend time in

Because of our late afternoon flight, we needed to leave our bags at the flat. this was not a problem. In fact all parties were very helpful. ... As a very nice ,cosy apartment off the beaten track , but close enough to walk to the main attractions.

We had a very nice time. It was very quite and well equipped. The sofas were very dirty though and I would not sit on them. They should be replaced. Also, we never had any hot water in the shower - good thing it was very hot in Venice that week. The air conditioning worked very well ans was necessary in the heat. ... We needed to store our luggage for 8hrs and Mrs Gracia let us store our luggage in her office. She was very kind. ... I am not sure if the web site states that there are many (35) stairs to climb. This could be a problem for some. ... Very pleasant and quite in a Venitian neighbour hood. Close to several water bus stops. Clean and simple accomodations. Good value in very expensive Venice

Great! Nice place with a nice hostess. ... Fantastic, perfect location! Washing machine, great kitchen, room to sleep four comfortably (2 in bedroom, two in living room) and a fifth on a little bed. Would highly recommend this apartment. ... No staff- this is an apartment. I think if we'd stayed longer they clean and do towels. ... no, very much as represented. ... Great!

As we were arriving late, we asked if some groceries could be bought for us and this was done very obligingly. ... The property was even more spacious than I expected, and was very clean. It was also well equipped with everything we needed for our stay. ... We were late leaving, and were allowed to use the apartment until our departure even though this was later than the agreed departure time. This was much appreciated. ... The apartment has great character, and a strong sense of history. It is very comfortable and the location is excellent. I would have loved to stay longer.

No staff at the property. The Flat was in an excellent location but it was rather dirty and was in need of some maintenance. The sofa bed provided let the place down in that it was very dirty and needed to be thrown away. In fact there was another sofa bed there which was far better but there was no room to use it. There was no hot water available from the sink in the bathroom and the shower could only be adjusted to scalding or freezing. ... Didn't see anyone at checkout just left keys in flat. ... Should state the excellent location. Aprox. 5 mins walk to St. Marks Sq and Academia bridge. ... Excellent location but in need of a good clean.

The arrival was well-arranged and well- executed. The staff member wasted no time in pointing things out, collecting the fee, and getting out of our hair. At first we thought her extremely efficient. Shortly thereafter we suspected it was because she did not wish to be there to experience our increasing displeasure over the apartment's shortcomings (see comment below). ... The apartment was equipped with an absolutely filthy, broken, pull-out couch which none of us, including my children, who were expected to sleep on it, wanted to touch. It's presence caused us to doubt the state of cleanlines for the whole apartment. For a good while this distracted us from the otherwise enjoyable experience the apartment and location eventually provided for us. It was a gross misjudgement on the owner's part and after we checked out I wrote to our staff member to say as much. Did not hear back. ... Simply left the keys behind and pulled the door. ... The Santo Stefano apartment is in a wonderful location with grocery stores and many restaurants nearby. It provided us with a truly enjoyable taste of the local Venetian lifestyle. However, the current condition of the apartment and its furnishings seemed more akin to college frat house dwellers than to travelling families or self-respecting Venetians. A definite pall on the experience. ... Frat house accommodations in an absolutely charming and delightful section of the San Marco district.

The hot water did not work very well. The place was pretty small...no bells and whistles. ... Very simple, just left my payment and key in the room. I never dealt with any staff or had any assistance. ... It's small, but pretty centrally located.

The apartment was a great location...perfect for us! ... The living room furniture was visably more worn than it appeared in the pictures but everything was clean. The towels and bedding were better than we had hoped for. ... The location! The view! ... Spacious, old, hot, perfect location, good value

Map of Venice provided on check-in -- very useful! ... The washing machine in the Apartment Widman was broken (this was one of the main reasons we booked the flat) and although we were promised that it would be fixed during our stay, it wasn't. ... Extremely well-located flat, glad we stayed there instead of one of the hotels.

Since we arrived after 7 pm, we were given directions to the boat stop but once we got off, no one was there to meet us and we didn't have directions to walk to the flat. We had to go into a cafe and ask the patron to phone the person who was to meet us. He came within 2 minutes. ... We had to pay an additional 55 Euro because of our late arrival and the need to hire someone to meet us. ... It was clean, quiet and adequate for 2 to 3 people. Nicely situated for visiting major sites in Venice and close to the boat stops.

It was a little bit misunderstanding, because the flat was placed directly piazza San Marco in the map, but then the flat is really near the rialto bridge, but on the other side. I am sure, that you can change this for the next time on your site in the map for this flat. ... Like writing above: You shall change the map on your site for this flat, because it wasn´t directly piazza San Marco.

The lady that met us, her name is Grazia, was very polite and explained everything we needed to know about our accommodation and gave us a map and leaflets.

On check out - we were told to just leave the key on the table and were free to leave at any time. ... No - all was ok. ... Location was fantastic. Cleaniness could be improved and some of the furniture was looking tired and needed replacement. Otherwise it was a more than acceprable accommodation.

Washing machine not functioning. Apartment decoration a bit tatty. Some water drips through lounge ceiling from apartment above. Cracked toilet seat. ... Venice seems to be very expensive. We had a week in a much nicer apartment in Florence for 2/3 the price. ... Good location. Basic accommodation.
