The apartment was a delight to stay in. The view is terrific and the space well-kept and beautifully furnished. Carmen has many extras which makes the stay even better. The location is close to shops and restaurants and while some distance from St Marks Square, where we had several tours, it is an easy walk from the apt. We traveled along the main thoroughfare as it would be easy to get lost. A couple times we went down a road only to end at a building or the water. Definitely find a map.
