Pros:
1- Robin was a very gracious host meeting us in Venice and helping us schlep all of our luggage to the apartment and up the 4 flights of stairs. She also bought a bottle of wine for us and let us unload some of our luggage and clothing for her to donate.
2- The picturesque rooftops view and on clear days the Alps beyond.
3 - The comfortable king size bed.
4- The amazingly perfect location on the grand canal with a water us stop at our front door.
5- Low price per night allowing us to eat out every night
6- dependable wifi
Cons:
1 - the stairs may be a problem for some out of condition folks. We viewed it as exercise.
2 - the apartment did not match the pictures and was rather worn and tired appearing. Two chairs at dining table instead of 4. No bookcase. Very poor lighting throughout during the evening. Cobwebs.
3- Kitchen was cramped, dark and not inviting for cooking which was why we ate out every night. There was an ant problem in the kitchen the last several days which we reported near the end but told Robin not to worry as we were not using it to cook.
