The apartment is in a great location, a bit off from the tourist places, but still everything is reachable only within a view minutes. There are shops and and a nice bar right next to the apartment. As Venice has a trash problem, there are no big trash containers, but there is a trash man, who rings the bell between 8:30 and 10 to collect it. The next Vaporetto station is only a 3-5 min walk away, and the conections there are ideal. We would defenitely come back here!
