The location is superb! We came in through Venezia S Lucia train station and took Line 1 to the Rialto Mercato vaporetto stop. The water bus ride was about 15 minutes. We were met by Enrico at the water bus stop and he walked us to the apartment (which took less than 5 minutes). We walked through the Rialto fish market and farmers market. The apartment is on the 3rd floor (American 3rd floor, Italian 2nd floor, with 0 floor being the ground floor). No elevator in the building, but it was an easy trip upstairs with suitcases and backpacks.
I chose this particular apartment for the location. We want to walk and explore all of Venice, but didn’t want to tow our luggage around more than we had to.
For this location, we just had to go from the Rialto Mercato stop to the apartment to drop off our luggage. We then were free to walk to the Rialto Bridge (5-8 minutes) and St. Mark’s Square (8-10 more minutes from Rialto Bridge).
The trip back to the train station was just as easy!
I have already suggested this apartment to friends visiting this summer! We will definitely return to this apartment when we return to Venice someday.
