Such a great apartment, in a great neighborhood, even better than the photos and description. Handy to the apartment is a bakery (Tonolo), many lovely restaurants, and in Campo san Margherita, a grocery, pharmacy, vegetable market, fish market, butcher, and great pizza among other things. The stairs to the 3rd floor are steep and narrow with luggage, but anyone in reasonable shape will find it OK. I found that being on the third level was good for reducing the noise from street level, which was only during the busier times of day. In general for Venice I would say this was a quiet location. We loved looking out the windows onto the canal, and enjoyed many meals out on the balcony, which is quite private looking out over the rooftops. We can recommend the little glass shop just after the pizza "garden", run by a local couple making Murano glass. Tonolo was a big hit every day, the best in all of Venice for certain.
