My wife and I stayed in Piero’s apartment for six nights in November. We are very seasoned travelers and have always preferred apartments to hotels, with great results. On the plus side, the location is wonderful. Very close to the Biennale, which was important to us, with easy access to the vaporetto in numerous bars and restaurants, including our favorite Nevodi. The canal view is exceptional, and even in November, we made a point of having coffee on the balcony every morning. Really, really special. Caroline, who lives next-door and met us for our introduction to the apartment was extremely helpful, friendly and flexible. Check in couldn’t have been easier. The overall space is very charming and fun. There are, however, things one should know that or not a parent from the description. The kitchen is really a kitchenette. Fine for morning coffee and very light preparation, but challenging for anything more. Definitely a space for one person at a time. The other thing, which other reviewer‘s have mentioned but not fully explained, is the condition of the shower. Yes, as is common in Venice, the water temperature requires some managing. It is an overhead handheld rig In a small stall, good for washing off, but for longer stays one night wish for a real shower. Further, each of the bathrooms are accessible by several steep stairs in the apartment, requiring some care for a middle of the night is this or too much wine. All in all, because of its location, ease of check-in, cleanliness, and most of all the balcony overlooking a lovely canal, we’d do it again, But probably not for six nights. Perfect for two or three, especially if cooking is not a priority.
