We called Christina as we boarded the waterbus towards the Rialto stop. We were promptly met by Desire, who took us to the apartment just a short walk away. Just a point of note however, Desire had the wrong name to meet up with us, and if I had not approached her and confirmed the apartment name/address, it may have been more difficult to have identified we were the occupants.
Great location, right behind Rialto bridge.
We left the Windows open on the first night and were absolutely destroyed by mosquitoes. We woke up in the middle of the night at about 4am and killed about 7-8 mosquitoes in about 15 minutes. My advice would be to leave the windows closed and use the air con - which worked perfectly.
The bed is made up of 2 single beds pushed together, and we were often slipping though into the crack :(
It's pretty clean, but not perfect.
The shower worked well with good hot water, but the drain was very slow the first night, but miraculously cleared the next day.
Wifi used one of the portable 3G setups. Which was fine for webpages and emails, but is unusable for videos/streaming.
Overall, Venice is an extremely expensive place to find accommodation, and given this, this apartment was an excellent choice.
