The listing and pictures accurately describe the apartment. It was clean when we arrived, and a very nice travel cot was set up for our youngest. Communication with our host was great as well. The open plan kitchen, dining, and living area is lovely, particularly when you open all the shutters and doors to the garden. We easily found the apartment -- a water taxi dropped us mere steps from the front door. It's also very close (a few minutes walk) to the St. Alvise water bus stop. The apartment is away from the very touristy parts of Venice, and yet, everything is easily reached. We had a wonderful seafood lunch at 40 Ladroni just around the corner. There is also a market a few minutes away that is stocked with anything you might need or want. We had a very nice stay in Martina's apartment and would recommend it to anyone. We would certainly stay again.
