Right in the centre of Venice yet off the beaten path, this small flat is clean and fairly comfortable. The view is not spectacular but nice enough, you get to see your first canal and that is colourful enough for a start. There is a good kitchen (no dishwasher) and various shops around so it is entirely feasible to source all your pasta fresh and authentic and cook at home simple but delicious meals for a budget. All the tourist spots are at walking distance, most of everything is 5 minutes from home including a cinematheque, La casa del Cinema, the Rialto, the market, the Piazza San Marco. Wifi is adequate if not fiber optic phenomenal, television delivers numerous local channels in italian, shower is good. We think it is a good place for a couple, we enjoyed the stay.
