The good: We really enjoyed staying in the Jewish Ghetto area of Venice (make sure you are aware that it is, however, about a 20-30 minute walk to all the other main sites across the city). The Jewish Ghetto area is great if you want more of a local/young/nightlife vibe without it being crazy. Agnieszka was not in town for our stay, but was responsive and helpful in checking us in through help from her staff (even when we needed to check in early, and when I requested an extra pillow on the second day). The apartment was very clean. There is a small refrigerator. There is a washing machine (but be prepared that your clothes will likely smell pretty awful when you hang them to dry due to the low tide making the air smell like rotten eggs). The not so good: The apartment is really, very bare. Meaning it is really lacking, in our opinion, in modern comforts. There is no light in the bedroom- only small side lamps that barely light one small space. There is no A/C and only a very small, slow and less than powerful fan that does not help much at all. The towels provided for drying off are so small that they barely reach around my body (and I’m a petite 5’2” woman). There is no coffee machine. There is no toaster or microwave. There is nowhere to get ready for women who enjoy doing their hair and make up (not in a muggy hot shower or standing up against a dresser with no lighting)— obviously this is a personal preference. The bed was quite floppy- it dents down when you lay and if you have a bad back you can expect it to hurt after sleeping here. These next issues are not so much as criticisms but just facts that upcoming guests would benefit from knowing. Since the buildings in the Jewish Ghetto area were built with intention to fit a lot of apartments in a small space- the spaces are SMALL. My husband is 6 feet tall and would hit his head on the beams if he did not crouch down. The bathroom is SO TINY- I don’t know how to explain it besides to say that it seems to have been built for someone 5 years or younger. The bathtub reminds me of a small plastic bathtub you’d buy for bathing a baby, but in ceramic form. It’s actually quite dangerous trying to maneuver your body around to wash, and showering feels like a chore (which is quite unpleasant when you’ve been traveling for weeks). Also, in the evenings expect to walk into an apartment that smells like rotten eggs due to the low tide. Again, some of these things are not totally avoidable by the host but could be improved- the tub and shower can be replaced, as can the bed, the lighting fixed, better fans, etc to make the guest much more comfortable. Overall, we enjoyed our...
