Unbelievably friendly and warm staff who gladly gave expert travel advice and recommendations that only a Roman would normally be privy to.

I have been using Cross-Pollinate for about 10 years now. The service is consistently great and I can always find just the kind of apartment we like, at the right price.
- Hirani Himona
A really great idea - with a network of hand picked little rooms/guesthouses. If only we could have this in more city destinations!
- Zoe Buck
I love Cross-Pollinate and every time we go to a new city I look to see whether they have some accommodations over there.

The two places I have stayed at from Cross-Pollinate have been among the best across Europe. Highly recommended.

Thanks a lot to Cross-Pollinate for the opportunity to experience a city as an insider! We really enjoyed our stay in Rome and Venice and look forward to more.

Cross-Pollinate was very helpful when the owner of the B&B wanted to charge us for the baby under 2 y o. It would have been difficult without them since the owners did not speak any english.

This was our only stay with a C-P apartment and we were very pleased with the entire process. Will look to use them again on our next Europe trip!

Great web site and quick response from the team a CP made the whole experience easy and hassle free. I have already recommended CP to quite of few of my airline industry colleagues and I'm sure they will make use of their excellent service.

Cross-Pollinate was extremely helpful! They found us a place to stay in our price range when many other places of business couldn't help us.

Cross-Pollinate was very easy to use, and it is so much better to stay in places like these than big corporate hotels; you get a much better feel for the place.
- Kaspar Deane
Very straight forward. Well done. Definitely would use it again. Love these type of alternatives to hotels!

Cross-Pollinate was fantastic and easy to use. We used Cross-Pollinate to book a room in Florence (the second leg of our trip), which was everything I thought it would be. We have recommended Cross-Pollinate to our friends.

Cross-Pollinate are great - the descriptions are accurate and they are very responsive to questions.
- Dominique Bayne
Cross Pollinate was just the best. I had tried a couple of places before coming upon them. As soon as I sent the first email I stopped looking for any more websites. I just wish they expanded to every city in Europe. Their knowledge, helpfulness, etc. was second to none.

Sestiere Castello, calle lunga Santa Maria Formosa, a lively Venetian street offering all kinds of groceries, shops and several nice local restaurants. You'll be in the centre of action without being annoyed by noise as the apartment overlooks a quiet, inner courtyard. An ideal starting point for your Venetian walks: 5 minutes on foot from Saint Mark's square, 5 minutes from Rialto and 10 minutes from the Biennale venues. Other interesting landmarks to visit in the area, Querini Stampalia foundation with its private collection and the beautiful garden by Carlo Scarpa, and Palazzo Grimani.
The apartment is 81 sqm in size, it's on the 2nd floor and it can sleep 4/6 people.
Sunny and spacious, it's composed of a small entrance, a bright living room with sofa-bed, dining table and a French window overlooking a private courtyard; a spacious and fully equipped kitchen, with plenty of kitchenware and accessories; a bathroom with shower, a bathroom with tub; 2 spacious double bedrooms (each of them can be prepared with queen or twin beds; a cot is also available on request).
Discounts available for longer stays - please inquire.
