We really liked the location of this apartment, which is located on a street with restaurants and shops, but is far enough away from crowds of the San Marco area. The apt was clean and well stocked, although we didn't end up cooking there. The stairs may prove difficult for some, as there is no elevator.
Communication with the host was good. Consuelo's daughter met us a the vaporetta stop and led us to the apartment which was a 5 minute walk. Our only issue was that we had to pay $25 euros to check in a couple hours early, which we found annoying because we had paid over $500/night.
