I enjoyed my stay in Venice and would recommend it to most. The host, Mario, was quite helpful and responded quickly to the various transportation questions we had. In fact he had even sent a family member to the public transport station to guide us to the loft, which was much appreciated. The place was clean and had good wifi, and the view of the canal from the kitchen and living room was great. It is also in a good location, fairly near important landmarks and areas and I had no problems walking around Venice and returning. The unit itself has a rustic and almost cabin-like feel and I would certainly recommend it to those who want a more authentic Venetian experience. It is cozy and has everything you need, especially considering time at your place is best limited when in Venice, as there is much to see in the city. However those looking for a spacious and perhaps more modern place with luxuries, or who plan to spend any significant time in their residence, may be better suited for the hotels of Venice.
