The apartment is very well situated (20min walk to the center, 5min to the supermarket, 2min to the biennale), the waterbus-station is also quite close. Lovely old furniture and chandeliers. Since we couldn't predict our exact arrival time, we had to wait for Nicola for one hour in front of the house, he didn't answer the phone. In the apartment there was no espresso cooker, but Nicola offered to bring one, unfortunately it never happened. The kitchen and the bath have not been cleaned before our arrival for ages, so we preferred not to cook in the flat, although we planned so, but to eat outside, also because the kitchen equipment was so poor. When trying to take a shower, there was no warm water. Written to Nicola, his answer: let the water out for 4-5min, then it should work. Finally, we had to clean ourselves after a day walk through Venice with a wet towel, like in a hospital, and it was impossible to wash your hair with the icy water... That's a pity, because the apartment might be much more attractive if the cleaning person and the manager Nicola did their jobs better.
