The location is great - very central. But the apartment itself is in a very quiet location. We had no problems with noise. We were met by the owner's son at the nearby Rialto Vaporetto stop (even though we arrived very late - 1:30am) and taken to the apartment. He recommended a cafe for morning coffee nearby. If you stay make sure you ask about this cafe as the coffee was great, the croissants freshly baked and both were very cheap (v unusual for venice!). The apartment was clean and the kitchen looked well equipped (although we didn't do any cooking). The second bedroom is very small and only just fits two single beds, but you can see this from the photos. The only v small comment/improvement is to add a mirror to the living area/hallway.
