We really enjoyed this apartment. It is compact but with a nice open layout perfect for a couple. It was clean and bright. The location was perfect - quiet and close to the Biennale and an easy walk to all the main sights of Venice. Superb restaurants, cafes and shops are a stone's throw away. There is a lovely local square where you can sip a spritz and watch the local children play soccer (football).
The kitchen is very well equipped with tableware and gadgets but if you intend to cook it is important to note there is no working oven, freezer, and no microwave or kettle. We were able to boil water for tea on the stove and there were teabags supplied so this was a minor inconvenience and we really appreciated the Nespresso machine with an ample supply of pods. The stove, dishwasher and washer were new and worked very well. The air conditioning worked well and the wifi was excellent.
There were many mosquitos in Venice during our visit which cause lots of problems for my husband and consequently we did not open the windows very often and noticed a musty smell in the apartment. The hosts provided a mosquito plug-in for the bedroom, and electronic mosquito zapper.
All in all, a great experience and we would happily stay here again. Be sure to look for the brick heart in the adjacent Sotoportego dei Preti!
