Apartment exactly as per pictures, everything was clean and baths were modern. It was great for our family of 6 (including 4 teenagers). Location is 5 minutes flat walk from railway station in Venice, so we were able to wheel our luggage there easily.
Apartment is on 2nd floor so get the benefit of having windows well above street level and we did not mind using the stairs. It is on a corner of a street and alley. The street has shops, markets and restaurants, so it feels like you are in the action of Venice.
Simone was prompt in all communications. We were pleasantly surprised that apartment had been well stocked for us (soaps, shampoo, basket of food, water, juice and wine).
Fully air conditioned.... with high quality glazed windows and the old wooden shutters. Given the sweltering summer temperatures, we were glad that we could return to the comfort of a well insulated and cooled apartment. The combination washer/dryer was also very handy. Next time we travel to Venice, we will stay at the same place, and bring half as much luggage and just let the washer/dryer refresh our clothes every couple of days.
We loved Venice and loved the apartment.
Thank you Simone.
