Riccardo and Chiara’s apartment is beautiful, cheery and stylish and the air conditioning works very well. The location can’t be beat. It is a 3 minute walk to Rialto Mercato and the Rialto Bridge surrounded by cicchetti bars in addition to many lovely restaurants and shops. Easy to get to St. Mark’s and the SL train station. The area is lively but quiet at night and the shutters are very effective at keeping out any outside noise and light. The living area is very spacious, immaculate, comfortable and inviting. Communication is excellent. Will be my first choice anytime we visit Venice!
