France contacted me early on my day of arrival to make sure I would find the place alright, which we did (after I got lost, which was totally my fault). Her mother greeted my three children and me, and the dog, at the apartment, let us in and explained everything to us. The apartment is very lovely, exactly as described. The beds (including the sofa bed in the living room) were made as we arrived, so we didn't have to do anything. Basic supplies were available in the kitchen, salt, coffee, tea, olive oil, dish washing supplies ect., which was very considerate and convenient. My children found it difficult to close the gate quietly, and I hope we didn't anger the neighbours!
The heating worked well and we didn't freeze, which was one of my main worries.
The apartment is close to the vaporetto stop on the Lido, there is a supermarket (Billa) in walking distance. Also, the beach is very close, and as it was winter, we took the dog there and had a lovely time collecting sea shells.
I can highly recommend Francy's apartment!
All in all, it was a very pleasant stay and I fully recommend it.
