Silvia is a very friendly contact for this apartment. She gave us some amazing tips, background and insight into Venice and things to do. The neighborhood is very quiet so it is possible to get a great night’s sleep and really have have a small feel about what it might be like to live in Venice. All the furnishing seems very new and well cared for, exactly as they appear in the photos. A definite plus are separate air conditioning units in the three living areas. One person in our group can’t sleep with air conditioning, the other wanted AC. It was possible to please everyone. We were in Venice so we did not watch TV, but the WLAN was stable. We have stayed in several apartments and hotels in Venice and this was the best bathroom yet: above head rain and hand held shower attachments. Super clean and easy to use. The towels provided were generous in size. Oh, and there was a hair dryer! Would recommend for Biennale visitors- Arsenale entrance is a three minute and Giardini twelve minute walk from the apartment. Enjoyable stay, thank you.
