Micheala and her husband are very lovely people and their flat is situated about 5 minutes walk from the grand canal where there ae lovely restaurants to sit and eat in the afternoon. There are also waterbus stations close for airport and island transfers. Its a bit of a trek to San Marco square and Rialto but if you like walking which you will need to do alot of in Venice anyway, then Rialto and San Marco is approximately 25 minutes walking from the apartment. The walking Route is very pleasant though. The apartment was clean and secure. Micheala and her husband has a bakery with lots of nice bread and pastries. You are offered free espresso which is a nice gesture. we really loved our little pack of biscuits which was left as a welcome in our room. You can come and go in as you please just be quiet and consider others. the house has a flight of stairs to go up but it's not alot. The balcony is a nice addition to sit in the afternoon. Thanks for loaning us the correct electric adapters! This was our third time visting Venice and I think we enjoyed this time the most. Thank you
