We loved this apartment. The host's son checked us in early and the apartment was even better than it looked on line. The location is perfect. Minutes away from everything: St Marks Square, restaurants, bars... There is a grocery store across the street. Several bakeries and coffee shops just meters away. The kitchen and bathroom are new and well appointed. With so many choices in Venice I think we lucked out with this apartment. We would not bother looking for a different place when we return.
