We (a family of 4) loved the apartment! It had a perfect combination of quality/authenticity/comfort and charm.. The location is superb for someone who wants to experience the real quaint Venice - so much superior to the touristy parts. The area is full of little canals with wonderful restaurants by the water. Mostly locals, it's vibrant and live. By night, it has picture-perfect views. The apartment is well-equipped, has mosquito screens on all windows and the beds are comfortable. The shower is small, but we did not mind. We adored the place and would absolutely return. Highly recommended!
