We had the pleasure of staying in a wonderful property in Venice. My wife and I were traveling with our son so the arrangement of the apartment was perfect. He had his now room, key, bathroom, kitchenette, etc as did we, but there was a sitting room with dining table and sofa that we shared for spritzes, sharing the days events and planning for the next. Also, communication with Roberto was excellent and Alex met us at the vaporetto stop, ushered us to the property and spent a good amount of time giving us information and amusing us with his take on what to do and see. Best part of the apartment was that it is in a quiet court (the flights of stairs were significant but not a problem) yet very very close to st. marks square and the rialto bridge. Only one issue - have the owners check the bedroom (the one without the family room area) for how the mosquitoes were getting in. All in all, lots of amenities, clean, convenient, and worth a look.
