Rita is a great host who is eager to help and explains everything clearly. The apartment is huge and beautifully decorated in traditional Venetian style. On either ends of the apartment, the floor length windows open to a small canal where we could enjoy boats and gondolas passing, sometimes with music coming from the band on the gondolas. The location is great, very conveniently located getting to San Marco, Rialto, Accademia, yet away from the crowd. The apartment is situated on 2F; an elevator is available which is real blessing for our 80-year old companions and for us moving our luggage.
Due to the design of this old building (ca. 12th century), the layout of the apartment is somewhat unusual. Four bedrooms, one downstairs and 3 upstairs, are located at different corners of the apartment, so be prepared to walk a fair distance to talk to one another. Only two bedrooms (1 downstairs, 1 upstairs) have ensuite bathrooms. The other two rooms are quite some distance from the third bathroom which is yet at a different corner. The kitchen is small yet well equipped with a dishwasher and a small washer/dryer.
Venice is unique and this apartment can definitely add to the overall experience We have enjoyed our stay thoroughly.
