Location, location, location. This is the reason to choose this loft. You are steps away from San Marco Square and all the other local attractions. Amazing location. The host is knowledgeable, friendly, and helpful. Easy to deal with. The air conditioning in the bedroom is a life saver in the Venice heat and humidity. The bed is okay. The rental space is a bit odd, as it is a loft with odd angles and extremely low beams and ceiling in many places. Easy to bang your head, no matter what your height! (I speak from experience...) . The loft is above the third floor. There are approximately 60 steps to the third floor, and another 10 or more up to the loft. They are installing a lift, but it was not completed as of our visit. After climbing the 60+ stairs to the small lobby on the third floor, there is nothing but a curtain separating the stair up to the loft. When you ascend the stairs to the loft, there is another curtain at the top, and a strange sort of space with low ceilings. To your left is a pair of doors that lead to the bedroom, which is air conditioned. The bedroom doors do lock. To the right is your bathroom, which is just for you. It has a large shower, but the water pressure is nonexistent. I would recommend this apartment because of the wonderful location, but with some qualifications. This is not for anyone with difficulty walking or climbing stairs, or any kind of a physical limitation, or very heavy luggage. It is also not for anyone tall. I am only 5'5" and found the low ceilings annoying, (and painful at times!) . But I did love the AC!
