Guido's apartment is beautiful, and only a 10-12 minute walk from St.Marks Square and also the Rialto Bridge. Guido's friend very graciously checked us in, a little later than we had originally planned; and gave us all the information regarding the Apartment and the Surrounding Area. Only minor negative was that the Apartment was on the 4th Floor (with no lift/elevator) which can be a little troublesome when carrying your luggage up/down.
