Outstanding location, charming apartment and spectacular view.
We have stayed in Venice many times and chose this apartment for several reasons: its perfect location, view, super convenient access to transportation, delightful neighborhood, charm, affordability and convenient access to major sights without being in the crush of tourists.

We took advantage of the small kitchen and since we were right at the Rialto market with fresh produce, fish, flowers and nearby specialty shops for everything from cheese, gourmet specialties, bakery, butcher shop, pizza, gelato et al. in the neighborhood it was wonderful and easy to prepare simple meals from splendid local ingredients.
There are also world class dining options in the neighborhood.

It is steps away from a convenient vaporetto stop on the Grand Canal as well as the traghetto -- the inexpensive gondola shuttle that crosses the grand canal.

We chose this location to be amidst the morning bustle of the market and the pleasantly lively and romantic nightlife --but were especially blown away by the amazing view and abundance of natural light.
The apartment is comfortable and well equipped. We couldn’t ask for more helpful or hospitable hosts. It was a true pleasure.
They provide a handy and comprehensive list of local information with excellent recommendations for most every need, including directions, maps and contacts. We found this very helpful. There is a folder with maps, contacts tips for sightseeing, dining, markets in the area and transportation options. The hosts were absolutely wonderful, accessible and really made us feel welcome. Can’t thank them enough.
We are already planning our next trip. We have recommended this apartment to our friends (even one very tall friend with the caveat, he will have to duck under a beam on the stairs to the loft bedroom.
We can’t wait to go back!
Thanks again, Michela
