We spent 2 nights at this home. When we arrived at the Rialto taxi location we called the host. Within 5 minutes someone met us at the bridge and guided us to the house. Without the guide it would have been difficult to find the home. The location of the house is excellent! Less than a 2 min walk to St. Mark's Square. The apartment was large and easily accommodated our need for 5 people and it could have fit more. Host was very responsive. The area of the home is off the tourist path so it's quiet. The only noise came from boats using the canal behind the home. I would recommend staying in this home for anyone needing to sleep 8 people.
