Venice is fantastic.... well, everything except Vetreria Estevan Rossetto
Vetreria Estevan Rossetto 1950的点评
点评:Venice is a beautiful city that I would highly recommend. But skip the side tour to Ventreria Estevan Rossetto on Murano.
We visited by water taxi from our hotel to Murano. We received a very brief demonstration of the glass factory but soon learned that the primary purpose was to sell us glass. That's fine, we planned on purchasing some anyway. We settled on a set of glasses for around $800. The price was steep, but the glasses they showed us in the display room were beautiful! What a great way to remember Venice for years to come.
Let's just say that those were not the glasses that arrived at our house one month later. One of the glasses has a sharp edge on the bottom which will scratch a table and possibly cut your hand. This same glass is so severely misshapen that it is almost unusable. A couple of the other glasses probably should have not made it past their quality control. We mentioned all of this to the glass manufacturer once we discovered the poor workmanship, but they have not responded to multiple contacts over the last 2 months. We have learned the hard way that their customer service and craftmanship are extremely poor.
Enjoy Venice but don't ruin the trip by going to Murano. Instead, you can buy similar glasses at a local vendor for 1/10 the price. With any luck those glasses might even be round...
翻译:威尼斯是一座美丽的城市,我强烈推荐。不过,建议你不要去穆拉诺岛上的文特雷里亚·埃斯特万·罗塞托(Ventreria Estevan Rossetto)的短途旅行。
我们从酒店乘坐水上出租车前往穆拉诺。我们参观了玻璃厂,但很快发现他们的主要目的是卖玻璃给我们。不过没关系,我们还是打算买一些。我们最终选择了一套800美元左右的玻璃杯。价格不菲,但展示厅里展示的玻璃杯非常漂亮!这真是一个让我们在未来几年里记住威尼斯的好方法。
不得不说,一个月后送到我们家的那几只玻璃杯可不是这样。其中一只玻璃杯的底部边缘很锋利,可能会划伤桌子,甚至割伤手。这只玻璃杯严重变形,几乎无法使用。另外几只玻璃杯可能没能通过他们的质量控制。我们发现玻璃厂的做工很差后,就把这些问题都反映给了他们,但在过去两个月里,我们多次联系他们,他们都没有回复。我们深知他们的客户服务和工艺极其糟糕。
好好享受威尼斯之旅吧,但别因为去了穆拉诺岛而毁了这次旅行。其实,你可以在当地小贩那里以十分之一的价格买到类似的玻璃杯。运气好的话,那些玻璃杯甚至可能是圆形的……
