Laura was helpful in giving directions to the apartment and personally covered her tips to see the best of Venice and the decent bars & restaurants all round. An easy neighborhood to live in, with a small supermarket close by.

The apartment was spacious enough for us - 2 kids and 2 adults and could have fit another person too. It's mostly IKEA furnished and not fancy or characterful, but will do for a short holiday.
Note that the charming canal is actually a busy thoroughfare, so we had quite a bit of noise late into the night from private boats blaring music to drunken teen revelers lurching home. Early morning we were woken by delivery boats tooting horns. Coupled with windows that let moonlight and sunlight in, we didn't sleep all that well!

It's also important to remember that this is a walk up apartment with no lift on the 3rd floor. We knew this but ended up having a bit of a hard time heaving up our luggage in the end.

Also the boat taxi needed specific directions (luckily Laura was canalside when we reached) or you'll end up having to trudge up an additional bridge to get to the doorstep. It's much easier and way cheaper to use the public transport from the train station.

Overall I'd recommend this apartment for a group or family with light luggage looking for a simple and convenient place for a few nights in Venice.
