This is a lovely apartment with a lot of potential (just needs a bit more attention from the host) and a unique view above the roofs of Venice. Other Positives: the house itself and streets nearby are generally very quiet, ideal for a good night sleep, just a couple of streets away from the nightlife. It will give you a feel of a “Venetian” life, worth waking up at 5 and see the roofs and first people getting to work; or watching a sunrise with a little coffee you have just made in the flat. It is very close to everywhere from the flat as well, once you get the bearings and stop getting lost in the maze of streets and bridges, you can be almost anywhere within 15’. Negatives (outside of the host’s control): be prepared for the sauna-like heat of this loft in mid-summer (don’t expect it to be much different elsewhere as the AC may be forbidden in the historic center for esthetic reasons?) and be prepared for some very loud seagulls “singing” outside at 5am, which can be magical in case you embrace the whole experince in a motto “You can sleep when you are dead.” :-)
