This place was great! Lovely apartment with a great balcony - 2 in fact. It really adds to the experience and atmosphere of Venice to have a balcony or terrace and this place delivered. I was able to drop my luggage 3 hours before check-in and the lovely woman I met helped me bring my suitcase up the stairs. She also arranged a private water taxi for my return trip to the airport (expensive but worth it to me). Hosts were kind and helpful and the apartment was just perfect for me. Lovely place to return to after a day in venice. Big comfortable bed, great pillows, powerful ac, lovely outdoor seating, nice hot shower, functional kitchen, quiet neighborhood, etc. - and all for a very reasonable price. I will return!
