Laurence is a great host and the communication throughout was fantastic, he even sent a link for a Pharmacy where we could get our COVID tests carried out - so helpful. As for the apartment it was well appointed for a couple self catering and was spotlessly clean with a special mention for the very comfortable and cosy bed. It was cold in Venice but the excellent heating had the apartment warm and cosy in no time and the local neighbourhood with it's shops and bars/bakeries/restaurants so close was a joy - away from the tourist hordes!
