It is worth the climb for this appartment. It is very spacious. The patio on roof is so pleasant. Wonderful location for walking to many places as well as catching the vaporetto. Although the water taxi is pricey, we needed to leave at 4:00AM. It was just a 2 minute walk to a hotel on Grand Canal where our taxi picked us up. 15-20 ride to airport and then a 10 minute walk on rolling walkways to get to checkin. Valentina gave us an excellent map and circled special areas to visit that we might not have done otherwise. She was also kind to meet us at the vaporetto stop and show us the way to the appartment giving tips along the way. It is an easy place to find. We saw many tourists searching for their homes totally lost but ours was very easy. We hope to go back and stay again.
