Very nice place, great location right off of Campo San Polo. Very clean with a good bed, well equipped kitchen, and nice spacious living room. It looks recently renovated with good quality furniture. It’s in a quieter section of the city away from the throngs of tourists between Pointe De Rialto and Piazza San Marco. Easy access to shopping and coffee houses and a 5 minute stroll to the Rialto and market. There are plenty of restaurants nearby and we found it to be a great base to explore Venice. A little disheartened once we got there that is not what we would call a “penthouse”. There is one floor above. No matter, it is high up – four floors – all stairs -- and yes, you can see roof tops and a canal near the building form the windows in both bedrooms and the kitchen. Before we arrived we got a text from the manager with the instructions to take the water taxi from the train station to the nearest stop, it took a little figuring out but we got there, when we left we walked to the train station without much hassle taking about 15 to 20 minutes. The manager greeted us and after short walk he went over the basics, gave us a map and pointed out a couple landmarks and some tips to get back; it’s easy to get off course in Venice but you should never get lost. There was a manual about how to use Wi-Fi and some information about local attractions which was all we really needed. We purchased a few provisions to go with the wine a short distance away. We were very happy with our stay.
