This apartment is in the middle of everything. I have stayed at a bunch of Airbnb's and I understand the differences that people request. If you want to be in the center of the action, the middle of the Venice, accesible by train, taxi stand out front, shopping outside the front door, restaurants and gelato in every direction this is the place for you. The amazing high ceilings, the rooftop terrace overlooking most of venice. It's truly an amazing apartment that is perfect for 4 people and probably overkill for 2 people. The hosts are fantastic, they gave great recommendations for restaurants (i did my research and bookmarked a few places but I can't believe I missed one that was recommended). I took my parents who are 70 and we didn't even use a cab once, not even from the train. It's walkable and central. You are a few floors up from the street but it can be loud if you are in the front bedroom but the noise dies down pretty early in the evening. Just an amazing place at a great price with great ameninties. A+
