BE CAREFUL!
Despite the excellent location, super close to St. Mark's Square and the Waterbus Stop, the advantages stop there.
It all starts with the building where the apartment is, the stairs are steep and the steps are narrow, if you don't pay attention you can fall. The neighbouring apartment usually leaves garbage outside the door every morning, which causes an unpleasant smell.
The apartment is INFESTED by mosquitoes! My sister and I were left with swollen face and arms from so many bites that occurred while we were sleeping. Terrible!
As we were in a group of 3 people I slept on the sofa bed which is SUPER uncomfortable. It makes noise with any movement in the bed, the foam is so thin it felt like we were sleeping on the sofa bed dais. A shame to offer that sofa for someone to sleep.
And to top that off, the Wi-Fi wasn't working and the hostess just warned us when we arrived, she clearly knew about this issue well before we booked and didn't notify us. I know she knew as she commented that the apartment has been without Wi-Fi since the roof renovation was done some time ago. Even with the Vodafone chip, the signal does not pick up inside the apartment. The hostess even had the courage to say that it was just a matter of leaning on the window in the corner of the apartment, to try to catch some signal. Result: we were without internet during our stay! Only when we were on the streets did the signal return.
In addition, the shower stall is defective, the water leaks all the way out. The shower is a small douche with weak water that gets cold in the middle of the bath!
And since everything that's bad can get worse, on our second day the electricity went out! We had to wait for the owner of the apartment to go there to see what had happened, so, we lost precious hours to solve problems in an old apartment!
I was fooled by the positive comments present here, perhaps from those who stayed a long time ago, or from people who don't mind insect bites, bad smells and discomfort when sleeping and bathing.
Despite that, Venice is a wonderful city that saved our bad experience with hosting. Choose a good place to sleep so that everything is perfect, Venice deserves a better accommodation experience. We walk a lot in Venice, i. e., there is nothing better than a comfortable place to return to after a day of sightseeing.
Be patient and look elsewhere, because cheap becomes expensive!
