This is a perfect base to explore Venice from! The location is ideal, in what felt like a rare non-tourist area of Venice but still only a stone's throw away from all the main attractions. The flat was comfortable and practical, with a nice big bathroom, bedroom and living area - and with air conditioning, which was crucial in the late-June heatwave. The only slightly negative aspects are a faint smell of damp everywhere, which I fear is unavoidable in Venice, and not a huge amount of sunlight, or kitchen supplies - but then, who is coming to Venice to stay in the flat?? Overall we loved it and would most likely stay there again. Oh, and communication was excellent, super-clear and responsive, and accommodating.
