The location is superb (next to Rialto), the host is responsive and reacts quickly. In the labyrinth of Venice, the host gave clear directions to find the spacious apartment. However, the apartment is not maintained well. One door fell out of its hinges just by touching them, the shower needs to be replaced (the shower head is filled with chalk and the handle does not work well anymore), some window shutters can not be opened or closed. In the old town of Venice, we could easily settle for those flaws and see them as characteristics of an old building, but the reason why I feel the need to warn future guests, is the way we were treated by the host. We did not have a chance to meet the hosts, but it seems that they fail to maintain the apartment and blame their guests for breaking it.
