Just finished up 4 nights in the Guggenheim apartment and my experience is pretty consistent with other reviews - plenty of space for my family of four (two kids aged 10 and 12), modern and clean apartment, lovely quiet yet accessible location and Fabio was excellent as a host prior, during and after our stay (we had a slight issue with apartment being ready at check in but both Fabio and his property manger were efficient in their follow up and minimised the inconvenience). We didn't use the courtyard really as it wasn't warm enough but I didn't find the ambience great - maybe in warmer weather it would have appealed more. The apartment, whilst on a gorgeous canal, doesn't have an easy to enjoy view (at street level so window is barred as is common in Venice, and to open the door and window means passers by can look directly in) and overall the apartment is a bit dark. We were out and about most of the time so not a huge deal but if light and views are your thing, just be aware it's a little difficult in this apartment. Great local restaurants and shops around. Convenience store to buy milk just around the corner and larger supermarket about 10 minute walk on the esplanade. The range and quality of food in venice supermarkets was fabulous! Thanks Fabio for helping make our venice stay perfecto!
