The apartment had all the basic necessities for a stay in Venice. Though Leonardo was away, he sent a very detailed message with all necessary information and quickly responded to any questions/inquires we had. Fresh towels, a spacious room and bed, and a fan made our stay comfortable. We shared the common area with a few different travelers during our stay & there weren't any issues with this - it was nice to chat with other travelers. If taking a water bus, there is a stop steps from the door. We prefer waking in new cities, though the walk was a bit further than we originally anticipated (~25 minutes), but the streets are beautiful with many shops and charm!
