The Airbnb is located in a quiet part of Venice, in an old building which was absolutely lovely. Plus, the apartment was clean! The location worked perfectly in terms of access to transport or walking to sites.
However, I had a few issues with this particular listing:
There is a check-in fee of 35 euros in addition. The check-in person who met me was super friendly but didn't know much about the working of the apartment.
The air conditioner failed during a heatwave both nights I was there. I managed to figure out that it requires regular maintenance every 2 to 3 hours or it shuts off. Obviously this is inconvenient when trying to sleep.
The bed consists of two twin beds pushed together, so there is a groove in the middle.
The WiFi does not work and will time out. I couldn't check in to my flight or look for other hotels to stay at.
It's true that the Airbnb is in a quiet neighborhood but the apartment upstairs was booked by a large party the two nights I was there. Every thing that was dropped, footsteps and yelling could be heard through the ceilings/floors.
The host, and check-in person, while polite, absolutely refused a working solution for the air conditioner. Francesca promised a fan to ease the heat and humidity and no one showed up. There was slow and vague communication in general.
I wouldn't recommend this listing.
