The apartment looked just like the pictures however did not have the luxury feel as advertised.
We ran into some challenges with arriving, such as getting there from the airport — we took a taxi to then take the water taxi. We were not told a route so had to figure it out on our own, which we could have inquired about as well so no one is at fault but we advise to ask Francesca the best way to get there!
We also arrived after check in and the cleaning was not complete. Once it was the apartment was still not as clean as expected.
The doors opening up to the canal were beautiful and loved not having to use a key - enter via code. It is in the San Polo neighborhood which had a lot of cute restaurants - a favorite of ours was Ciak (highly recommend) and it was amazing having a grocery right around the corner!
Overall we loved Venice - it is such a wonderful, unique city!
