What a great experience. Cristina and her son Antonio were gracious hosts. She was very helpful answering questions before the trip and Antonio was patient when we arrived later than expected.
The apartment is on a main walkway with a ton of things to do very close by. It was immaculate. The décor is a mix of ancient Italian and 1980s. Cable TV (watched the Olympics) and basic kitchen supplies. There are a lot of stairs, with the living room and kitchen on the second floor, two bedrooms and a bathroom on the third floor, and another bathroom above those.
The bathrooms were clean and modern. On a hot day it felt great to walk around in bare feet on the cool marble and stone floors.
Warning... Venice has mosquitoes in the evening. It was hot when we were there so the windows were open and we had some mosquitoes inside. The hosts provide electric repellant devices in the bedrooms to help. But any place without air conditioning would face this issue.
The pedestrian street outside is very busy and there are people outside late into the night. It can be a bit loud with cried noise but I personally loved people watching from the large windows.
Overall this apartment was a dream come true.
