The location is excellent - situated in an old building (which we loved) but functional inside, with a door opening right up onto the social streets right by shops/restaurants/bars and a bridge over a canal. Within a couple of minutes stroll you are at the unforgettable St Marco Square which must be appreciated both by day and by night! There is also a water-bus stop just a minute away at the water-front along with the base for the gondola rides. All in all it was a fantastic apartment in a great place for a great price - would recommend/go again.
