We were in Venice for four nights to see the biennale. The apartment was absolutely perfect for us. It is so beautifully decorated, very well equipped with everything you need (we cooked dinner twice and the kitchen was well stocked) and super clean. We were so happy to have found the apartment and wanted to stay longer because we felt so cozy and at home! It is very well located for the biennale- the biennale venues are so close by. The area felt safe and authentic with many small shops, cafes, trattorias, etc and very few tourists. It was lovely to experience a quieter side of Venice. Previous reviews say the loft bed is uncomfortable and Nicola offered to set up the sofa bed for us but we went with the loft. It is a basic mattress but we found it comfortable and were happy with to our decision :-) We will come back to this apartment when we next return to Venice!
