Christian is a great host. Very nice guy.
The apartment is basic but clean. Perfect base to explore the city. Location is GREAT (center but just out of the super crowded area). If you are thinking about spending a good amount of time inside the apartment, you might find it not "homey" enough. But you'll find everything you need to cook and to work (wifi works great). When we went there was no coffee maker but Christian was going to buy one. He had very good instant coffee though.
The bathroom is very skinny but clean and nice.
The heater works great! The bed is comfortable!
Definetely a great value in Venice. Recommended!!
