The first thing to know is this is the best possible location, right between the Rialto bridge and St. Mark's square. It's overlooking a small canal, and we were thrilled with the gondola singers as they made their way down our canal. The living room was spacious, and the kitchen was fine, and we had enough beds for our party of 8. The heat worked great and the bathrooms are what you would expect in Europe and clean. So would we stay here again? Probably yes, but there were some drawbacks. Overall the apartment is a bit worn. The beds were not very comfortable to us, and only offered one flat pillow per person. More pillows would be great. And there is no coffee maker, only a hot water kettle. So we were making instant coffee the whole time, not the best. The downstairs entryway is a bit rough. BUT the location is AMAZING. This place has great potential with just a little more TLC. The beams in the ceiling in the living room, the frescoes on the ceilings in the master, the terazzo tile floors, all were wonderful. The little patio with a table overlooking the canal would also be great during warmer weather. It's a gem of a place, and we would consider staying here again.
