I booked the apartment for my family (I wasn't there, unfortunately) but they told me the apartment was very clean and tidy, close to restaurants, the beach, and small shops. It has everything you need, from a washer, to an iron, to wifi etc so that you feel comfortable. I am definitely booking this place again if going to Giardini. Also, Francesca is the sweetest person, it's always a plus to have a nice host :-)
