Apartment was.... ok.positives - it was clean, good location, good aircon.
Negatives - The shower was broken (making it difficult to use), the dishwasher had no handle and the whole apartment smelt a bit of damp.
On a side note, the welcome host was late and took us through a welcome guide that had some very troubling anti-national undertones against certain ethnic groups (anglo-saxons). I understand that some "coaching" may be required for tourists new to Venice, however putting this across in a highly patronising way does not promote a relationship between host and vacationer.
