Tatiana’s place was perfectly placed a short 5 minute walk from the tram stop that takes you directly (and quickly) into Venice. She was a very attentive host when we had issues. However, the apartment was dusty, dirty and the bedroom smelt like damp cigarettes. There was stains on the bed sheets and the plug sockets were hanging out of the wall. When we arrived, the toilet seat was already broken and slid off whenever you tried to sit on it. We also had a power cut one evening when we came home late from Venice, so all power in the apartment was off (including the fridge). Tatiana came over quickly to help us solve the issue and got the power working again but it was only the tip of some of the issues we found with the apartment. If you don’t intend on spending much time in the apartment (like we didn’t) and want a base to explore Venice then the location of this apartment is perfect and secure to leave bags but it lacked basic cleanliness and we found a lot of issues with the electrics, amenities and furniture.
