Lorenzo's apartment is really more like a small house tucked inside of a gated courtyard that is flanked by apartments. It also has it's own gated front patio with chairs and tables for early morning coffee. We were in Europe for a month on our trip and stayed several days in Venice. This apartment was by far the nicest place that we stayed. The home is in two stories with the living room/dining room and separate kitchen/breakfast nook on the bottom level and a master bedroom and en-suite located upstairs. The furnishings and décor were tasteful and well kept. the kitchen was fully equipped, including a dishwasher.
Although I didn't get a message to Lorenzo until early the morning of our arrival regarding the time we were getting in, I was able to call him and he immediately sent someone over to let us in and show us everything we needed for our stay, including some dining and shopping tips.
This property is definitely better than described in the listing and was a fantastic deal. We would stay here again anytime.
