Description from owner
Description
Luxury apartment just 150 meters from St. Mark's Square; an apartment full of light and sun (a rare and precious feature in the narrow lanes of a medieval city), furnished with antiques and works of art. Small balcony, unforgettable, astonishing view on a canal - the same canal, by the way, that is spanned by world-famous Bridge of Sighs, merely 200 meters away. Marble bathroom. Fully equipped kitchen for passionate hobby cooks. Air condition (within the narrow limits that the Italian law sets for the sake of climate protection, which is taken very seriously in Italy), heating, elevator.

“Excellent location”
My friends and I had the best time. The apartment was centrally located and extremely comfortable. Would definitely recommend.

“Very close to St Marks Square”
Great location for being close to St Marks Square, shops, cafes and restaurants and to watch gondolas going by frequently from the small balcony.

“Romantic Venice”
The apartment is near St. Mark’s Square. Easy walking to Rialto, opera, Peggy Guggenheim and water transportation. We loved the gondolas floating beneath our balcony as they serenaded their pass… More

“Rip-off. Inaccurate listing. Do not stay here”
This is a spacious studio, not a 1-bedroom or a 2-bedroom, as was advertised. There was no air conditioning when we visited, so it was very, very hot. This compelled us to leave the windows open at ni… More

Response from the owner The complete jerk in question, that's nobody else than me, so please exercise caution when reading the following response: 1. In 17 years of renting this apartment out, David has been the first person ever to define La Rosa di Venezia as a studio. About 1,300 guests (and 37 reviewers on this site) before him didn't view it the way he did. That doesn't of course mean he's wrong; perhaps those 1,300 guests and 37 reviewers were complete jerks just like myself. 2. On the canal below our apartment, by night, a total ban on boat traffic is in vigour (and really observed). The "noise" comes from the occasional seagull. 3. As far as air condition, for those not yet familiar with the apartment, it's important to know that you can't get a permission for individual air condition for single apartments in Venice; only central air condition for an entire building (to be set in function, at the start of the season, by the building administrator and a specialized company charged by him) will be permitted. That said, I'm quoting from my email to David, which earned me his flattering qualification: "Of course there is air condition, and of course it’s perfectly working; but it goes without saying that it’s only operating within the limits of the applicable laws. Italy has been championing the fight against man-made climate change for a very long time, earlier than most other countries. A very important part of this commitment is the heavy restriction on heating and air condition (both of them egregious climate change triggers). Air condition is basically illegal in Italy, with clearly defined exceptions for specific institutions (notably hospitals), and for the hottest summer months. The precise timeframe (i.e. the few weeks of the year when air condition is admissible) differs per region, since climate differs within Italy. In the region of Veneto, air condition is only permitted from June 6th to September 3rd of each year; this is independent from actual weather conditions. If it’s unusually hot outside that timeframe, the City of Venice could, in theory, grant exceptions (in other words, allow to switch on air condition earlier or switch it off later, which latter would be even more interesting, since September can be pretty hot in Venice, far hotter than May or early June) – but in reality, the City never ever does, so the restriction to those (scarcely) three months from June 6th to September 3rd stands irrevocably. You were in Venice from (dates hidden for privacy reasons), so there was no way you could have air condition – neither at La Rosa di Venezia nor at any other place anywhere in town, or anywhere else in the region of Veneto. Shorty after your departure, the necessary checks on our air condition system have been performed, and since June 6th, it’s working, perfectly in tune with the law (Decree of the President of the Republic no. 412/1993, which means that it has been in vigour since 1993). By the way, fines for unlawful use of air condition go up to 3,000 Euros, so Italy really means it! And that’s not all: the Italian law also defines how strong air condition can be. It must not bring down room temperature to less than 26 degrees Celsius, although fines are suspended down to 24 degrees, so in fact, most air conditioning systems are set up to cool down to 24 degrees – which is still pretty warm, though, and still makes opening the windows far preferable by night. The nights that you were in Venice, temperature went down to 20, 19 and 21 degrees, respectively, so even with air condition, you’d still have opened the windows.

This was a great place to stay - close to S.Marco but it was also possible to avoid all the crowds. I was there for the Biennale, which was only a 10-15 minutes walk. The apt is comfortable with plent… More
