Pros: David's apartment was in the perfect location. It was close to Piazza Roma where you can easily find taxis, buses, or the train. It was also close to the Rialto Bridge and San Marco. But the perk is that you are just far enough away to beat the big crowds of people. The Apartment was in a much less congestive area. There was two awesome restaurants within 3 minute walk. Frary's was a Mediterranean and Middle Eastern restaurant that was absolutely amazing. The flavours from the food was delicious. And Murovenezia was amazing traditional Italian food. All within just a short walk around the corner of the apartment.
David was a very nice host. He made sure to have plenty of snacks for us while we was there. He also responded quickly to any messages that I sent him.
Cons: I'm not one to try and find problems with our Airbnbs. But there was a few irritating things. The first problem was that it was advertised to have AC in the apartment. But there was no remote to turn it on. When I messaged David about this he quickly responded back.
" Yestreday was freezing. Its too early. We do not have not autorization yet. Open Windows, the evening is cold."
The problem with opening the windows was the mosquitoes was biting us all night. And I was actually a little hot trying to sleep. I had to sleep without any covers.
Also tge wifi did not work at all in the bedroom. You had to stay in the living room to have wifi connection. This was a inconvenience for me and my wife.
The Apartment is advertised as a 4 bed, 7 person apartment. We had 6 persons. I guess I needed to clarify that we needed the 4 beds though. Because there was only 3 beds set up. That meant my 17 year old son would have to sleep with his 16 year old sister. As they would say "that would have been Awkward"
David did pull out a single bed from under one of the larger beds and made accommodation. But it was expressed that I should have informed him.
The shower was very small especially for a guy that is 112 kg. It was actually a little small for the girls as well.
With that being said It was a great location and I would recommend to give it a try. None of my cons would keep me from booking again. But just to have a better picture of the apartment. My family really enjoyed the vacation.
