WOW - what an AMAZING experience at Venice5th!! You don't come across Airbnb's like this very often - if it's available, snap it up!! The home itself is absolutely beautiful, impeccably furnished, and wonderfully comfortable (including the beds). The view from the outside terrace is stunning - it was hard to leave to go and do our sightseeing. If fact, I wished we had booked extra days in Venice where I could have just stayed to RELAX and ENJOY this beautiful home and amazing views!
Yes, as other reviews have mentioned, there are several flights of stairs to access the apartment itself and the 3 floors inside the apartment. So keep that in mind - I don't think I would recommend someone with weight or health issues to book unless they planned to just mainly be at the house for the stay. If you are in and out a lot, you do have to be prepared for the hike up and down the stairs. BUT - if you can do it, it is absolutely WORTH IT for the commanding views you get from being on top of the building. And you cannot beat it for LOCATION - right next to St. Mark's Square and the main sights of the city. We were able to walk almost everywhere we wanted to go. There is also a grocery store within 25 yards or so of the apartment which was great.
Check-in was a breeze, and the host provided many "nice touches" like a bottle of wine and lots of Nespresso coffee pods :) In addition, they were so helpful for giving information on everything from airport transfers to where to get the Covid tests for our trip home. They really go the extra mile to make your stay the best one ever :) Don't hesitate to book Venice5th - I would return in a heartbeat!!
