  Alles is er, maar wel krakkemikkig en niet echt schoon

  De ligging

  Niet schoon, contactdozen die loshangen. Airco die steeds vastloopt en veel muggen omdat het raam dan open moet

  Palazzo splendido e ottima posizione

  Cucina molto poco attrezzata e lenzuola non di cotone. La pulizia potrebbe essere più accurata.

  Historic private and comfortable studio

  Absolutely amazing accommodations for a history lover. The building is a palazzo apparently divided into private dwellings. The studio itself has windows overlooking a small side canal and the square on the other side, which helps with bringing fresh air throughout the day. You can hear gentle water sounds, boat traffic, birds, church bells, and even live opera singing with the windows and shutters open. The building sways almost imperceptibly from the gentle waves hitting its foundation. Medieval checkerboard stone tiles, and what appears to be the original hearth and ceiling with exposed wooden beams darkened with age. Down the stairs to the courtyard you'll find medieval weapons and armour on the walls, and a small boat launch that is currently gated off; the waves lap at the stone steps. You are just a couple of minutes walk from the Giglio Vaporetto dock, from shopping, bistros and fine dining, and a ten minute walk from Sant Marcos Square. The bed is comfortable and I slept like a rock there from the gentle swaying of the building and a reasonably dark and quiet room thanks to the heavy metal exterior shutters over the windows. The kitchenette is very basic, with a sink, small fridge, a cooking pot, a single plate and bowl, at least one mug, and eating utensils. There was a stovetop coffee brewer and a bit of coffee. No microwave, but there is an induction hot plate. Don't go there planning to cook meals, but having this facility made it easy for me to prepare cereal and coffee in the morning. The host also gave directions to the supermercado where prepared meals can be purchased and then kept cold in the apartment. This was a great way to save a bit of money on meals towards the end of my trip. The host is very communicative over text so you will have all the information and support you need while maintaining your privacy. It was a privilege to stay in such an historic place.

  The kitchenette could have a bit more such as table settings for two for couples who come through and a frying pam. Towels could use replacing, smelled of mildew with perfume to try and cover up the smell. Windows over the canal also meant a hoard of hungry mosquitoes coming inside, worse in the morning and evening. Window netting would be a benefit so the windows can be kept open for fresh air. While there is an air conditioner available, it must be kept above 25° C to keep it from overheating. It didn't do much for the humidity but it did circulate air a bit on a hot stuffy night. However, these were minor complaints compared to the delight of staying in a very special and unique building. I would absolutely stay there again.
