The patio was our favorite place to hang out and you can hear and see the gondolas passing by below although unfortunately, the wifi didn't reach out there. It was just my husband and I so we stayed in the upstairs room with the round bed. If you're staying with a family or group you would have to walk through the round bed bedroom to access the patio upstairs. There was A/C which was nice to have on a few of the hot nights. This apartment is centrally located by plenty of shops and restaurants but be aware that there are 50 step to get to the apartment and another 12 to reach the upper bedroom and patio. We arrived at 8:30 and I guess if you arrive later then 8:00 they charge you a $50 cash fee ($100 if it's after midnight) although there is no mention of that anywhere on the Airbnb site. We complained and Dominique reduced it down to $35.
