The apartment is nicely decorated and has Venetian touches such as Murano glass chandeliers. Simone was a very business professional host who had a clear set of rules and regulations to follow which he outlined when we arrived. Everything was spotlessly clean when we arrived. For Americans, it is on the 2nd floor, up one flight of stairs and there is not an elevator. The place is also conveniently located an 8-minute walk from the main train station as well as off of a street with many restaurants and original Murano glass shops. Note it is about 25min walk to the Rialto Market area. We hired a porter to help carry our luggage from the station and up the stairs so I would recommend this option if you are a large group with a lot of luggage. If you are accustomed to the air conditioning in most places please note this apartment is set to go no lower than 24.5 C/77 F which we found to be quite warm and especially uncomfortable during the night. Additionally, the beds were worn out spring mattresses and not very comfortable.
