This apartment in Venice was very close to the train station and near the city central. It is up many flights of steps which we knew and that was not an issue. The bedding was average for the price; almost like hostel bedding with a simple sheet small blanket and not great pillow. The issue we had was the water and water pressure. It was inconsistent with the heat and sometimes it was hot and then it would get really cold. You had to go to the laundry room and flip on the switch to make sure it was on. It was adequate but do not expect to get a good warm shower with decent water pressure especially if there are more than two people in your group. Also, the wash machine did not work. I am sure it had something to do with the water system. They were willing to look at it, but we did not want them in the house when we were not there.

Dear Guest,
Thank you for sharing your feedback and for highlighting the convenient location of the apartment.
We would like to kindly clarify a few points. The apartment is located in Florence, in a historic building where certain characteristics—such as stairs, water pressure, and temperature fluctuations—can naturally vary depending on usage times and the structure of the building, including floor level and overall demand.
Regarding the washing machine and the reported issue, our team was ready to intervene promptly; however, we were not granted access to the apartment during the stay, which unfortunately did not allow us to carry out the necessary checks and assistance.
We are sorry that some aspects did not fully meet your expectations. At the same time, we always remain available to support our guests in real time, in order to resolve any issue as quickly as possible.
Thank you again for your feedback, which is always valuable for us.
Warm regards, Apartments Florence team
