We had a delightful time in Venice and this apartment suited us just fine. While we wouldn't call it "luxury", the place was clean, spacious, and convenient (and a bit unusual/quirky, but not to its detriment). It's location is away from the hustle and bustle of a busy street (at least in November), and yet close enough to everything.

We were greeted by Nanie - who played the role of a very nice apartment manager. She went over everything with us and was quite cordial. The hosts were kind enough to provide fruit, bread, jams, beer, coffee, and a host of other things. We also bought some things and left them for the next guests.

All in all, it was a fine apartment in a beautiful city.
