Venice Apartments Dante

The apartment is in a great location, away from traffic and an easy walk from public transport, shops and a lovely bakery. The apartment felt very secure and had good windows and shutters. We had to shut windows at night to keep out noise from restaurant below. The beds are not very comfortable though and we did not enjoy the smell in the apartment. The kitchen is not well equipped- there were not enough items for each of us. Eg. only 4 spoons. Which means we needed to do frequent washing of dishes. But we found the dishwasher had a terrible smell from dishes being left in it, there was no dish cloth/sponge and no dishwashing soap. No tea/coffee or any condiments so you will to bring everything of your own if you wish to use the kitchen. The facilities are more in keeping with a hotel than an apartment. The sofa was terribly worn out with badly damaged/ripped fabric. We learnt on check in there is a 10euro daily housecleaning fee, but we saw no evidence of any housecleaning the 3 days we stayed.

Good value for two nights. Close to bus stop going directly to Venezia-approx.150m. Sound proof between apartments not that good. Felt like my neighbor was in the same room when they started talking...the area was in the middle of nowhere. Ten minute walk to Mestre city square.

We are a family of six. The apartment was great for all of us. Close to public transportation. Many local cafes and restaurants, even a Coop close by.

We are a group of 5 including 2 kids. It was not so good experience. Our apartment was on 2nd floor and there was no elevator so we have to bring all the luggage through the stairs by ourself and that was painful. At least, the apartment management should provide the service to carry the luggage to 2nd floor. The passage through the stairs was smelly and there was a lot of suffocation in the room as well. There is smell in the apartment too. The bathroom sink drainage was blocked and it would take a while for water to pass by. The apartment was not easy to find but we were lucky enough that the owner was available nearby at the time and he took us. There were not many restaurants nearby. Although the place was quiet and relaxing.
