The apartment has a great view overlooking the junction of two small but picturesque canals, so almost unlimited gondola-spotting opportunities. It is very centrally located, so less than 5 mins walk to the Rialto Bridge or Piazza San Marco, and convenient for numerous shops, restaurants, supermarkets, bakeries, gelaterias, pizza and pasta takeaways etc, as well as for the vaporetto to the airport and other places at Rialto. But the area is quiet at night despite being centrally located.
The view from the apartment is stunning and the decor traditionally Venetian, with Murano glass chandeliers, carved and painted beds and chairs, pictures etc. The apartment comes with almost everything needed, including spare bedding, iron and ironing board, safe, toiletries, hairdryer, kitchen equipment, coffee maker, tea bags, sugar, even a weighing scale in the bathroom. You can log into Netflix and Amazon on the TV in addition to Italian channels.
Check in was easy at the hotel round the corner from the apartment, which is open 24 hours a day. Paolo was very helpful in responding to messages before we arrived with information on how to find the apartment and restaurant recommendations.
Would recommend - miss the view already...
