The apartment was absolutely lovely, exactly as pictured, conveniently located close to the main Venice SL train station, easy to walk to even with suitcases. The apartment was spotless clean and very nicely designed.
3 issues caused me to give a lower rating, and its a shame because otherwise the stay was perfect.
First, upon arrival, a person contacted me to "check me in". I wasnt sure why in person, and we waited for him to show up although this was a self-check in and we had the door code. Turns out they needed passport pics which i could have just sent. Secondly, he asked for this mysterious "city tax" of 3EU/person/night which could only be paid cash. This was not advertised on Airbnb and is against their rules so i refused to pay, and Airbnb backed me up.
Second, the upstairs heating didnt work. They promised to come fix it but didnt, and the room was freezing and unusable.
Lastly, wifi was extremely spotty.
If all these issues are fixed, the place is perfect.
