The place was clean and modern. Diana and Isabella were nice hosts, very warm and friendly. We enjoyed being very near the Rialto vaporetto stop and St. Mark's square which is a 10 minute walk from the apartment. There was a grocery store 3 minutes from the apartment and the fact that you already see restaurants and shops when you walk out of the apartment was a big plus. The only minor thing they need to do is put hooks to hang clothes when showering and shelves in the 2 bathrooms for toiletries. I would recommend this to anyone. Beware though that there are about 25 steps leading to the first floor apartment.
