Unbelievably friendly and warm staff who gladly gave expert travel advice and recommendations that only a Roman would normally be privy to. - Loic Diels
I LOVE this website and will gladly recommend it to anyone headed this way. Nothing disappointed us! - Mary-Iris Taylor
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. - Arantza Aldea
The two places I have stayed at from Cross-Pollinate have been among the best across Europe. Highly recommended. - Nicholas Burn
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. - Tatiana Marchenko
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. - Yulia Pichugina
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! - Anthony Giglio
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. - Shane Pickles
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. - Sarah Seminutin
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! - John White
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. - Barbara Carlin
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. - Caroline Collis
Laguna View Attic Flat
This modern duplex is located in sestiere Cannaregio, at the Fondamente Nuove (quay overlooking the Venetian lagoon). A lovely local corner, untouched by tourists' groups but nevertheless at 10 minutes' walk from Saint Mark's square and Rialto bridge. With several local shops and nice restaurants in the neighbourhood, you can enjoy Venetian life still being close to all main attractions. To see around, also the majestic Gesuiti church and SS Giovanni e Paolo square, with its open air cafés and the great church and hospital renaissance façade.
The flat is 80 sqm in surface, it sleeps 2/4 and it's located on the 1st and 2nd floor.

It's composed of: a small entrance, a bright living room with kitchenette, a twin bedroom and a bathroom with shower on the 1st floor; a large mansard where you can sleep 2 additional guests and lovely altana (rooftop terrace) overlooking the lagoon on the 2nd floor.

Recently renovated, nicely furnished, with a lovely view.

Reviews
Robyn T. on Mar 2016:
A beautiful apartment and recently renovated, so it has all the mod cons. Loved the view facing onto the Fondamente Nuove and this came with added convenience of a nearby Vaporetto stop. Having said this we mostly walked around Venice & it was only about a 10-15 minute walk to St Mark's Square. The other great thing about the apartment was it's location NOT in the tourist precinct. This made our holiday more like living in the real Venice. Plus plenty of nearby shops and restaurants charging non-tourist price. Thanks Barbara for such a warm welcome and special holiday in your city. Now it is time to start planning my next trip to Venice.
