If you love Venice, this is a true Venetian experience. The view of the Grand Canal especially in the evening is a dream. Laura was extremely helpful and gracious and the atmosphere was elegant and enchanting. Everything was clean & comfortable and it was very spacious. A little further from San Marco and also seven stairs to the bathroom and the bath tub has a hand-held shower and a sloped ceiling which makes a standing shower awkward. As long as you can manage these things, you will love this place.
