Sandra's place was very well situated in Venice in a quiet area. Her friend Robin was very nice in showing us from the Rialto bridge to the apartment, and gave us good suggestions on nearby hot spots and places to get groceries. There are a lot of things right around the corner from this space. The front door to the apartment complex itself did not close or latch, which left room for concern. We were also given very complex check in instructions the morning of our stay, which we felt made our getting there a little more complicated. We were also informed the morning we were heading to Venice that someone would not be available to help us check in until 4:30, when the listing states 2pm for a check in time. We were also informed of special check our instructions at 2:30am after we had already left the apartment.
