We stayed for 3 nights at the Splendid Star apartment. It took us a little while to find it as it said it was above the Gucci and Swarovski store which it wasn't. Apartment is up 2 flights of stairs with no lift so beware of this if you have mobility issues. The check in process was very simple. The apartment itself is quite small. There was a welcome pack with breakfast and some refreshments in the fridge which was a nice touch. There is a small lounge/kitchenette at the end, bedroom in the middle and bathroom at the end. Lots of sachets of shower gel and soap. Apartment was mostly clean but a bit of limescale in the shower and the toilet seat was quite dirty and yellow. Bed was comfortable. Only complaint is that you can hear everything. Next door was very loud at about 12:30am which kept us awake and when they went to the toilet, the toilet flushes and goes down a pipe which must be where the bed is as that was quite noisy. Also, due to the location, there are no real views. If you are looking for a cheap and cheerful place to stay in Venice, then this does the job. However if you are looking for luxury, we'd advise you stay elsewhere.
