This was our 3rd Airbnb we stayed at in Italy. The apartment is exactly like the pictures shown. The beds were comfortable and linens were very nice The bathrooms were well appointed & shower provided warm water. Note: you cannot take long hot showers w/4 people--stagger it & you will be fine. Towels and soap/shampoo are provided, if needed. We did not use the kitchen--why would you as there are plenty of restaurants around??
Riccardo & Chiara provided perfect intructions on how & where to meet. He also provided excellent restaurant recommendations. OMG....please listen to him. He knows awesome places where locals go.
I don't think I would ever stay in a hotel again. I love the whole Airbnb concept in Rome, Florence and Venice!!
A couple of thoughts to help your journey:
1) Purchase an Italian SIM card for your phone for $30 with 4Gig of data. It helps so that you can find recommended restaurants, google maps and other data. (you can get at airport or on corner below apartment.)
2) This apartment does not have a washing machine. It worked out ok, as it was our last cty on our 14 day tour of Italy....so I did laundry (with Tide pods I packed) and I saved on the amount of clothes we brought.
3) Bring faceclothes--Europeons don't use them. I cannot live without them to wash my body. I bought a pack of 4 from the Dollar Store and just left it there when we departed. Note: I also bought a bar of my soap & case from home as most soaps offered are small.
Hope that helps! Enjoy Venice....it is amazing. Please go on a tour to understand the history. We did a Food Tour with 'Walks of Italy' and found it fun and very informative.
