I thought that the location could not have been better!!! It was 5 min easy walk with our luggage from the train station. The walkway in front is great for people watching and the canal in front is frequented by gondolas. I also loved that a fully stocked supermarket was within 1 block with plenty of restaurants in the surrounding neighborhood and places for a morning cappuccino!
The place was beautifully decorated and air conditioned...a welcomed reprieve from the mid day heat. Lots of space I side and windows that open up to the canal.
You will find that Google maps facilitates your walks to certain destinations.
Getting up early and walking around is great...locals on their way to work by 730...tourists start to fill the streets by 830am
Overall the place was wonderful..and I will recommend it to other friends and family members who decide to visit Venice
