This is a lovely condo/apartment close to everything in a safe area. Someone meets you at the boat dock (count on waiting about 15-20 minutes) but it’s so helpful for them to pick you up. You walk to your place (including steps) so make sure to just have a rolling suitcase- although there was a “baggage porter” at the dock for those wishing to pay. The condo seems to be fairly recently remodeled & the building has an elevator that works very well. We always went out to town the way we had come in so we had no idea until the last day that the building backs up to a canal and gondolas go by it. Take a moment tilo look around the downstairs courtyard you’ll see an arch opening, canal, and gondolas passing by. If you go to the right when leaving you’ll find the bridge overlooking that canal and see the arch from the other side.
