Unfortunately I would definitely not recommend this place to anybody looking to travel to Venice. The flat itself was lovely and very similar to the post however the host made it a very difficult stay.
The host was MIA from the start of this stay. Despite the check in time being stated as 4pm on the listing, the host decided to go out because we 'hadn't told them what time we were checking in.' Throughout our stay we never actually saw our host once, despite them being in the flat occasionally. We arrived to no towels and were told to grad some unironed ones from the kitchen. These towels were quite stained which was a bit off putting. The first few days went well enough because we didn't hear from the host. It was not until we used the kitchen that it went downhill. We received a very angry text from the host explaining that we were no longer allowed to use the kitchen as we had left it messy and the gas on. Two things to note here: first we had asked for instructions on how to use the gas but had never received a reply from the host. We therefore had to figure this out ourselves and unfortunately left the switch on. I'm not sure how this works in italy but in the UK leaving the oven switch on is perfectly safe. Second: when we arrived back to tidy the 'mess' we had left, we realised it wasn't messy at all. We had left a small amount of items in the sink and the surfaces were still clean and tidy. The hosts reaction of banning us from using the kitchen felt like an overreaction here. Especially considering that when we arrived there we dirty dishes everywhere, including in the oven, the fridge and on the window ledge. Most of these dishes we had cleaned up ourselves so we could use them as there were no spare items. Despite three texts from myself and my partner apologising, the host never replied. They weren't there to see us at check out either and never sent us a goodbye message. So I assume check out went OK? But who knows.
Definitely not somewhere I would go back to as the host made it a very uncomfortable environment. If that's not something you mind, or you're planning on just staying in your room the entire stay, then this place would work just fine.
