The perfect place to explore Venice from! Open the windows in the living room and take in the sights, smells, and sounds of the Rialto Market directly below, and an ideal spot to people watch... Just a few meters past the canopies of the market is the memorizing Grand Canal with its unique ecosystem - water taxis, gondolas, trash boats, and water buses (packed with locals and tourists, the locals tolerating the picture happy tourists, who can't seem to out their cameras down).
If you want to feel what it's like to live in Venice, like a Venetian, this is the place to do it. All of the touristy stuff is close by, 10 minutes walk to St Mark's Square, 1 minute to the Rialto Bridge, and 30 seconds to some delicious pastries and pizzas.
Check in was easy and simple, and the apartment had all the amenities you might need. Communication was great, and suggestions for food etc. were helpful and delicious. Ristorante Da Ivo was pricey but memorable and magical!
