Great apartment with beautiful view of canal. A short 10 minute walk from the train station, so you can avoid the craziness of the water bus with luggage. Sebastian met us as we arrived at the apartment. He was kind enough to give us some travel tips. The apartment has everything you need. We were able to wash our clothes after a week of traveling. The km0 restaurant after the bridge was very good. We would stay there again.
Our host met us to check us in. The location is close to the train station yet overlooks two canals. Very convenient with everything you need for a great stay. We highly recommend.
Sebastiano was an excellent host. He was prepared for my stay and ensured I knew areas to see, shop, eat and best ways to get to them. He made himself available in the event I had questions (in which I did).I would definitely stay there again when I visit Venice.The apt. Is as advertised and very clean stocked with needed items.
I had the most lovely stay here. Sebastino is absolutely wonderful. A true Venetian local. He showed me where he went to Elementary School down the canal! This apartment was perfect for my artist getaway. It was March and I had lots of rainy mornings but it was so perfect to sit in front of the window and sip my coffee and paint the canal and bridges and passersby. The bed was really comfortable and shower hot with good pressure. It was in a wonderful location by the train station and Vaparetto stops and has some great local eats close by. I love this sweet apartment with an amazing view and hope to be back when I visit Venice again.
Apartment was very neat and clean; Sebastiano was very nice, he met us at the apartment, explained everything and was always available via WhatsApp. He even accommodated early check-in as our train arrived early. All in all a very memorable stay for our family.
Everything was well organised. We didn't miss anything.

Loved this property! Spacious and very well appointed suited all of our needs. Lovely and quiet neighborhood while still accessible to all of the man attractions. Sebastiano is a wonderful host.
Host Sebastiano was friendly, informative, and available. We loved that the property is a short walk to the bus depot yet far enough away to be out of sight. There is a view of two canals complete with occasional gondolas passing by. Super clean, and well appointed for two people. As stated in the ad, it is up two flights of stairs, but we are in our 70's and had no trouble. Close to several restaurants and a short walk to the Conad grocery. Overall it was a great place to serve as the base for our extended stay in Venice. Highly recommended.
The apartment is in a great location close to the train/bus station and good restaurants, whilst still being quiet during the night. It has a fantastic view of the canals too. Sebastiano was a great host and incredibly helpful. We look forward to staying here again when we are next in Venice.
Venice was our first stop for our 3 weeks in Italy. After our perfect stay in gaffaro apartment we can only hope the rest of our trip is as wonderful! The accommodations, location and welcoming check in was the best way to start our journey. The neighborhood was quiet and walkable to any/all Venice highlights! We highly recommend Gaffaro apartment with Sebastiano.

Our stay was amazing. The host was very accommodating, explained everything and answered all of our questions. The apartment was very clean and spacious. Loved the location. It was walking distance to the bus,train and water bus. We will definitely be back.

Great location--great experience
Wonderful place. Great location, great view, extremely clean and comfortable. We were received in an exceptional manner and would recommend this place to anyone visiting Venice.
Wonderful stay in Venice. The apartment provides everything we need with a beautiful canal view. Plenty eateries, restaurants and supermarkets nearby. Less than 5 min walk to bus station and 10 min walk to the train station, super convenient location. The host Sebastiano is very friendly and patient. He provides some great tips about how to get to get around Venice. Highly recommend!
This apartment is very close to the train station but still far enough away from the tourist traps. I LOVE the neighborhood and the convenience. The views were STUNNING and the host was helpful and accommodating. I would definitely stay here again and again!
We really enjoyed staying here. It was away from all of the chaos which was so nice and made it quieter. The bed was very comfortable and. Sebastiano was a great host too
