Watching from above as the gondoliers prepared for their day on the canal directly below the windows of the pleasant main room was the highlight of this apartment. The bedrooms were basic with small windows, and the air conditioners couldn't quite compete with the August heat, but our stay was only one night and the view helped make up for those shortcomings. Sebastiano's communication was excellent -- and detailed! -- and his text message responses prompt. His sister met us promptly, as well, for check-in.
