The apartment lived up to the photos, and in fact it exceeded expectations. It was in excellent condition, with a good layout. The beds were comfortable, the kitchen was very well-equipped, and the location suited us. It was a short walk to the Palanca vaporetto stop with the number 2 stopping there frequently to whisk us either to Zattere on the other side of the Giudecca canal, or to San Marco. There were a number of really good restaurants not far along the waterfront - enough choice to not have to go far after a long day sightseeing. Christina was very easy to deal with, and responsive to any messages. Overall we would highly recommend.
