There are not words sufficient to describe the elegance and spaciousness of this home. The apartment is in the most beautiful and interesting neighborhood of Venezia. It is adjacent to the famous Venetion Ghetto and we were fortunate enough to be there over Friday night and Saturday morning and witness one of the worlds oldest Jewish communities. Gathering for Shabbat and worship alongside the other residents and visitors of the neighborhood carrying small plates of gorgeous appetizers and glasses of wine to the edge of the canal and socializing as the sunset, a chanteuse sang live songs and Jewish families headed home to light candles. The apartment was even nicer than described and Paoula who let us in was helpful and patient even though we were late arriving and she had somewhere to be. The kitchen and bathroom were beautifully appointed. The location was wonderful. My only regret is that we did not stay longer. The place is a nice walking distance from rail station. Not to close and not to far. There are vapporetto stops convenient to Murano, San Marco and the railway station. Definitely buy the 24 hour pass for the vapporetto. It's expensive, but not buying it is more expensive. One caveat. With carry on size luggage it is an at least 20 minute walk from the station, including two bridges with steps. If I had it to do again I would hire one of the aggressive porters at the station. We had more than carry on. DO NOT CROSS THE BIG BRIDGE IN FRONT OF RAILWAY STATION when fining the apartment. Go to the foot of the bridge (a little to your left when coming out) and go to foot of the steps and then head left. For quite a while you will walk along a nice shopping street. After you start crossing bridges...follow Paoula's directions.
