Leonardo and Irene made sure that we'll have a smooth check-in and all the important details — we've got a very detailed instruction on how to get to the apartment and around it, including the info on deposit box with the keys for self check-in (since the hosts were out of town because of work) and useful tips on good restaurants and nearest supermarkets.
The apartment is located in a very nice and quiet place with a very nice view of the lagune. It's easily reachable by foot, so we didn't try to take a bus, although we've seen quite a few of them passing very close to the apartment. As for the inside of the apartment — it was quite nice and the room looked very authentic with all that retro furniture. The only small downside was that the furniture was quite squeaky, so it was usually hard to keep it quiet while using it :)
Other than that it was a really nice place to stay and very close to Venice. Btw, if you plan to go between Venice and Lido more than twice a day — the 24 hour waterbus pass can be handy since it costs 20 euro (while single one-direction ticket costs 7.5 euro).
