For a small group, this is a perfect place to stay in Venice. It is close to the main attractions but far enough from them that the crowds are reasonable. As long as you do not mind three flights of stairs to get there, it will be perfect.
We did not use the kitchen facilities but they were well equipped. The beds were reasonably comfortable. The bathrooms are new and modern. Best of all, the bedrooms are air conditioned. Overall a great place.
Getting there was a bit scary at first due to the way Venice addresses buildings. When the owner says it is directly behind the Gritti Palace, she is not kidding! We were met at our water taxi by Valentina which made the process easier. Initially, we went to the Gritti Palace but could not offload there; we had to go to the S. Maria del Giglio vaporetto stop, a two minute walk from the apartment. The location shown on the Airbnb map is not accurate; I actually think the real location is better.
Alessia answered any and all questions quickly. It was my wife’s birthday and the owner not only checked to ensure all was well, she also wished her a happy birthday, a nice touch.
Keep in mind the expense of Venice, especially in the busy season. For the price of a middle-class hotel room, you can have an entire apartment on a canal. The cooking facilities alone make the difference when you look at the cost of eating in this city. I would return here without hesitation.
