Great apartment in northern Venice away from the madness of St Mark’s Square! Spacious kitchen and lovely living room with wooden beams. Good to have an electric keyboard- meant that I managed to get some piano practice in!
Martin, who checked us in was really friendly and helpful. Also very patient, despite our flight being delayed by a storm in London. Martin and Anna responded very quickly to enquiries.
I’d recommend this flat if you want a bolt hole away from the touristy areas, but it’s also only about a 20 minute walk to St Mark’s Sq, so you’re not far from some of the main sites. There are some lovely bars and restaurants near the apartment - much better food at better prices than in the centre.
The other thing that was very helpful is that the flat is a 5 minute walk from the Alilaguna (airport water bus service) stop on Fondamente Nove. This made getting to and from the airport very easy- it’s about 40 mins from the main airport to the nearby stop.
Only one comment for improvement- the flat has very effective air con in the bedroom, but not elsewhere. It would be good if this could be looked at, as the living space got very hot during the day and the small windows meant it was very difficult to cool it down.
Overall good stay, very friendly and effective communication, easy travel from the airport and a lovely area.
