Location: Just a 5-10 minute stop from the nearest Vaporetto stop and the Strada Nova there are plenty of little shops around. The neighbourhood is quiet and you can hardly hear a mouse peep at night. It's a safe area, reasonably lit at night. A good place to stay.
Check-in: The place was a little bit challenging to find, as the streets can be a bit confusing. There was no name on the buzzer for the apartment and we had arrived early and Paolo had not yet arrived so we weren't sure if we had made it to the right place. However, once we called Paolo and he met us at the apartment, check in was smooth. Paolo had prepared a fantastic and very useful pack for our arrival including transport maps, tourist and restaurant recommendations, suggested itineraries and more. He even had a bottle of sparkling wine ready for us in the fridge upon our arrival which was very much appreciated given it was the hottest day in Venice for the year! Paolo showed us through the apartment and how to operate everything including the WiFi and washing machine.
Comfort: The master bedroom was a good size with heaps of cupboard space. The two single beds were a great size and easily slept two people. One of the single beds was quite firm which wasn't an issue for a short stay but may need to be considered for a longer stay. The linen was lovely and the apartment was clean, crisp and delightful. The air-conditioning was superb.
Space: The space was beautifully decorated.The water pressure was great and Paolo had even provided toiletries for each of us. There are two dining areas and the couch is a sofa bed/divan kind of set up. Seating is centred around the table in the kitchen area when the sofa bed is set up however the sofa bed can be collapsed and turned into a couch during the day to open up more room.
Price: This was a great place for the price and the welcome pack, toiletries and wine upon arrival really made for a lovely stay. I would recommend this place for 1 - 4 people.
