The location was terrific, the view amazing. The location between the confluence of two canals makes the unit quite magical, thank you for allowing us to share your little slice of heaven. The location is in a quiet neighborhood, very relaxing, great for a peaceful nights sleep. The gondolas come by all the time, making it very romantic. I swear you could have an amazing vacation without ever leaving the apartment. Do walk the streets though, the kids had a lot of fun painting there own masks and the there is plenty of terrific shopping for the wife.
