The apartment is in the heart of the Rialto Bridge area, full of life and things to do. Very convenient for touring the San Marco area and seeing many of the well-known sites of Venice. The hosts were amazing! Wonderful tips on places to eat that weren't just touristy. We had some fantastic meals following their advice. The apartment has all the things you need, including ear plugs since you're in the thick of it at that location. We were a family of 5 and had plenty of room. For an old apartment in the heart of Venice, this one was great.
