The apartment is small but has everything you could need including effective heating, ample hot water, a very effective two-ring hob, a tv, a hairdryer & a booklet with local information. Paola is a brilliant host - she met me from the airport water taxi & showed me the route to the apartment; she was so friendly & chatty & pointed out helpful visual markers so that I wouldn’t get lost, a close supermarket, good places to eat & even a place to take an excellent photo of the city. The apartment is in an excellent location - so central & everywhere I wanted to visit, including the Biennale, was within walking distance. The price is very good for such a central location & for an apartment that is self-contained. The apartment is cosy & was lovely & peaceful - you enter a courtyard before climbing the stairs to the front door. I slept very well!
If I return to Venice again I would definitely stay in this apartment again. Highly recommended & thank you to Paolo for such a great stay.
