the apartment we originally booked was not available on arrival so when greeted to be told we were going to be moved we were a little dubious but these new apartments are beautiful and in a fantastic location within 2 mins of Rialto Bridge. due to a couple of scheduling conflicts we stayed in a two room apartment the first night and were moved to the top level split level apartment the 2nd night both were brand new decked out very modern and really are stunning apartments personally we enjoyed he first apartment of one level a little more simply less stairs and a gorgeous little balcony over the canals which was charming for our first time Venice visitors. the second apartment whilst beautiful and has a terrific large balcony with deck chairs above the square but we loved the canal views only negative this apartment has bathroom on first level and bedroom up quite a few stairs so a little challenging to navigate at night and with a bad knee not the easiest - so for anyone that struggles with steps this is the only thing I can bring to the attention of this apartment Maurizio is a terrific host very on hand to ensure all your needs are met
