The views on Venice was a great apartment in the heart of Venice. The location is SUPERB to all things you want to do. The check-in was a bit odd (at first) as I needed to message someone (outside of Airbnb) to organize getting into the apartment (no self-check-in). But, then when arriving to Venice, I understood why. The streets are so narrow and there are so many tiny alleyways that it would be very difficult to try and get there on your own. Sara who checked us in was very friendly and gave us a map of the city and a good list of places to visit.
