The apartment has a good location - a little bit set away from the 'touristy' streets, in a neighborhood which appears to have local residents, so you get a better feel of everyday Venice. The neighborhood shops, restaurants etc. also echo this - seemed to be more geared towards the local residents (a plus for us). The fact that there were two bathrooms was wonderful for our group of 5, just makes getting ready to go out and winding down so much easier. Overall a comfortable place, roomy enough that you are not bumping into each other.
If you are planning to spend time indoors, do note that besides the sofa-couch - that can accommodate three - the other place to sit are the bar stools.
While small soap bottles were provided, you may wish to bring your own.
Like any old building, the stairs are uneven, always hold on to the hand rail and turn the light on in the stair hall.
