We arrived at Venice after 32 hours of travel since leaving our home airport. Leone met us at the Vaporetto stop and pointed out the nearby restaurants and shops as we walked the 5 minutes to the apartment. Then, even despite the 3 flights of stairs, it was great to reach Leone's apartment. He gave us the tour of the apartment, and it was very special to go out onto the terrace and enjoy the view that you can only enjoy in Venice, with view of the rooftops and the church bell towers and with the canals and Gondoliers passing below. The apartment was clean, roomy and bright, with lots of windows to allow us to enjoy the views.
My one criticism would be that the shower cubicle was very small and cramped. Anyone who is a bit overweight would have trouble fitting into the space.
Otherwise, everything was GREAT and highly recommended.
