We went to Venice in the end of July and stayed in Andrea's apartment.
First of all, the communication with Andrea was very good, he always responded in a short time frame and gave us tips for how to come to Venice.
We've chosen to meet Andrea at the St. Lucia railway station and he went with us to the apartment.
The apartment corresponded exactly to what you can see at the pictures and everything was clean. The apartment was equipped with wlan and there were towels and all necessary things to cook and even to make coffee.
Andrea introduced us to the apartment and had a list with all the sightseeing things you must see and even a restaurant list where you can eat.
The apartment is located in a quiet place but you can reach the main tourist attractions easily be feet (Rialto bridge 10-15 min).
At the day of our departure we could leave our luggage at the apartment, so we could spent still a few hours in Venice without the heavy luggage.

If you are searching for a quiet place to stay in Venice I recommend to choose Andrea's apartment.
We enjoyed at lot!
