Katina's apartment is nicely decorated as seen in her photos posted. It’s centrally located in San Marco district, the tourist destination of Venice, just as described in her listing. There are plenty of shopping and things to do, and to look around, plus lot of tourists, which is good for people watching.

With all the rave reviews Katyna received, I was expecting this to be a terrific apartment to stay in. But it turned out to be a disappointment.

My husband and I stayed there for 3 nights during one of European’s worst heat waves. With that, Katyna was in Greece, and her concierge was on holiday break. All these circumstances contributed to miscommunications, misunderstandings and an overall bad experience, which started even before our check-in, and continued through our stay. I have gone over the details privately with Katyna.

Since this is her first and only negative review to date, my experience could be an anomaly.
