The apartment is in the heart of the venetian quarter Castello, so it is perfect for a biennale visit, but not only, as the atmosphere is very friendly and pittoresque without the big masses of tourists you have at San Marco and other places in Venice. I had the impression that it is a quarter where a lot of locals live. A supermarket is just around the corner and both main sites of the biennale are only a 5-10 minutes walk. The apartment itself gives enough space for two persons, has a kitchen with dishwasher, hotplate (but no oven) and is fully equipment with dishes and pots. Also the bathroom is very nice and clean, even with a rainforest shower. The bed is new with a comfortable, more likely hard mattress. The apartment was very clean, fitted out luxuriously and lovingly decorated with old biennale posters and some sixties furniture. The w-lan worked perfectly, the check-in was easy and quick, also the check-out. The owner is very friendly and helpful and even gave us a bottle of wine as welcome present. Very sweet! In short: if you go to Venice, this is a very, very, very nice and cosy place to stay at.
