I have to split my review on Eugenia's place in two parts.
First, let's talk about the apartment itself. I rented both units as I was traveling with a group of 8.
Together they constituted the best Airbnb apartment we ever rented. Clean, well equipped, spacious, with good wifi (incredible how this can be critical), and quiet.
There are restaurants, ice cream store and a supermarket just 5 minutes away. The very expensive vaporetto is also just 5 minutes away.
A few suggestions and feedback to the owner: one of the washing machines (largest apartment) makes a noise so loud we opted to not use it, as we were afraid we would break it. Thankfully we had the machine on the second apartment. And the largest bed on the smaller apartment (left side) could benefit from some maintenance.
Other than that, the apartment is super and we would rent it again without second thoughts.
Second, I want to talk a little bit about customer service. Eugenia has a gentleman helping her take care of the apartment. He was very nice when he met us for check-in, with clear explanations and good communication.
Two days later I had a problem with one of the bathrooms. I won't go into much detail here but I absolutely believe Eugenia and her staff have an opportunity to better approach customers with problems and customer service in general. I don't think the way it was handled was at the level of the apartment itself, if that makes sense. Such a great apartment deserves customer service at the same level. After some painful back and forth Eugenia got it resolved.
Anyways, I truly believe Eugenia has the goodwill and all the intentions to get better on that front and despite this issue the experience was positive.
As other already mentioned, walking from the apartment to the Piazza San Marco area should take around 20 minutes. Same is true if you want to walk to the Academia Bridge, 20 minutes. But for both it actually takes longer because as tourists you always stop for a picture, to check a souvenir or just admire the architecture of a building. Depending on your pace and how often you admire your surroundings, this can easily jump to 40 min. It was never a problem for us, anyways.
Bottom line, highly recommended.
