Ahead of our trip, Alfonso emailed instructions how to travel from the airport to the water taxi station nearby the apartment, where he arranged for someone to meet us. It was a two-minute walk to the apartment, situated in a charming, small, quiet court. The apartment was tidy, comfortable, and family friendly (perfect for our travel with a ten-month old and a four-year old) and we enjoyed making most of our meals in the kitchen, and eating and relaxing in the living room with its large dining table. With its high ceilings, wooden beams, and opulent Murano glass chandeliers, the apartment possesses a simple, authentic Venitian charm. We were very appreciative that there was a fold-out crib provided for our baby and we all slept well. The apartment's location is excellent, a short walk to the Sant Angelo water taxi stop on the Grand Canal, and to many sites on San Marco, and conveniently located a seven-minute walk to a large grocery store. We would definitely recommend this apartment.
