Luigina was a great host! We found the apartment very clean, comfortable, and easily accessible, with location very close to the Rialto bridge. Her husband Marco met us when we got off the water taxi next to the Rialto bridge and he took us to the apartment, which was a short walk away (less than 5-7 minutes). We did have to climb to the 2nd level, but it was no problem with my wife and I carrying relatively light luggage. Marco showed us the apartment, provided great tips on places to eat and see, and instructions on operating the washer - which we used once but you must follow his instructions or the door may not open:)! There was a very nice kitchen (with all the pots, plates, and utensils if you need them), a separate sitting room with a working TV and local cable, and a second bedroom which can also sleep two people.
Overall, the stay was very comfortable, affordable and in a great location close to the local market, Rialto bridge, and easy (about 10 minutes) walk to San Marco and all their attractions. We were also close to the water taxi pick-up/drop-off location, so easy for us to take from the bus station (Piazzale Roma). Also it was convenient for us to take to the train station where we boarded a train for our next stop in Florence. Luigina also stayed in touch with us and provided helpful information on directions from the airport, taking the local bus and water taxi, and making sure someone was there to meet and greet us.
The apartment sits over a small restaurant, so sometimes you can have some noise but it was minimal and did not bother us. The last day there was some noise in the apartment upstairs by 1 or 2 small kids, but we were not there much for it to be a concern.
Overall, this was a fantastic stay and we hope to take another trip to Venice with our two sons and spend more time there!
