This apartment was a great little find and was very comfortable indeed. A charming area that is well away from the tourist hustle and bustle.
The information pack was quite detailed and Natasha was delightful to deal with as well as being very helpful.
What is important to know is that the apartment is very out of the way and very hard to find - it's not even on Google Maps! As it's so easy to get lost in Venice it would have been very useful to have a much more detailed map.
We had flown approximately 24 hours from Sydney, Australia so were exhausted and hot and would have loved to have showered when we first arrived at about 9.30am from the airport. Unfortunately, even though we'd been initially advised by Barbara that we could check-in at 11am and then a few days later were informed that we could check in at 10am, Natasha was unaware of the earlier check-in and the flat wasn't ready and wouldn't be until 12/12.30pm as the previous occupants were advised they could check out late. Not ideal given how long we'd been travelling.
We stayed in the first floor apartment and we hadn't realised how many stairs there were nor how steep they were. A bit difficult getting luggage up and down.
I believe there are even more stairs to the second floor flat.
It's also worth noting that the washing machine and the dryer are located on the ground floor and are shared by both flats. Fine if everyone is known to each other. Not necessarily quite so straightforward if the apartments are rented separately and both sets of airbnbers want to use the washing machine and/or dryer.
Pack insect/mosquito repellent - the mozzies (mosquitoes) are ferocious!
There is no air conditioning and you really feel it in the hotter months, especially as you need to sleep with the windows closed due to the mosquitoes!
