This flat is a great location but if you don’t sleep with noise it is not for you. When we arrived in the Venice June heat the air-con didn’t work at all and an engineer came to mend it but we then lost any hot water. He came back the next day to sort both and this was only possible with a very loud and continuous noise from the boiler in the bathroom to the double room with an oil smell so the window had to be left open. The door into the double bedroom can be shut but it is still loud and oil dripped onto a towel too. I slept well but only as I had earplugs. Otherwise the flat is basic and functional - oh the cooker only works with large pans resting on the top
