Our lovely apartment in Venice greatly enhanced our visit to this wonderful city. Its location was perfect: with restaurants and shops just around the corner and a very short walk to a vaporetto stop, Piazza San Marco, the Academia bridge and other locations. The apartment was everything we had hoped for -- clean, well furnished, and with lots of places to put our stuff. Our only criticism was there was no WiFi in the apartment. However, we were able to get WiFi at the local restaurants. Our host, Leonardo, was wonderful! On our arrival day, he met us at the vaporetto stop, took us to the apartment, then helped us up the stairs with the luggage. On our day of departure, he met us at the apartment at 2:20 a.m. to make sure we got to the water boat that would take us to the airport. That was over and above any expectations. One caution -- if stairs are a problem, this is not the place for you. The stairs up to and inside the apartment were steep and narrow. That was no problem for us, but it's something to think about.
