Great trip to Venice and made very welcome by our host, very helpful direction to the ferry pier closest to the apartment then met by our delightful host and guided to the apartment. Apartment was perfect, very clean with everything we needed - nice fresh and modern. It seemed to me that the place had recently been refurbished including new furniture - so was spotless. We had good weather for October and managed to sit in the sun on the small terrace/balcony for a while, which was great!

The apartment is a short walk ( 10-15 mins) from St Marks Sq, our host gave us a map, but in the maze of Venice street we found Google a great help! The location seems to be set amongst local residents - so after all of the tourists in the centre it was nice to go to the small local cafe and shops near to the apartment - there is even a small restaurant that we ate at that was very nice and think most of the other guests were local.

Would certainly recommend this apartment to any one wanting to stay in Venice - not right in the centre but just an easy short walk from all the sights.
