The place was very convenient if you are coming to venice from the train- which is why we chose it we didnt want to carry our luggage far. But everything else was a mess; the ac did not work, it was 90 degrees inside the apartment, the hot water did not work at all the water was freezing cold and it was hard to shower. also the kitchen had NO condiments or salt or pepper or anything, at all. the dishwasher was also full when we arrived so we just didnt use the kitchen at all. the owner sent the maintenance man who didnt speak much english and just knocked and pretty much walked in. it was confusing and difficult overall, especially if you are traveling from america. all in all the location was the only plus!
