This apartment is located near the Rialto bridge and the market and a short walk from St. Mark's Square. It was nice to be close to the main tourist areas and close to the water taxi stops. There is nothing special about the room, but for the price it is hard to beat the location. If you are looking for a 4 or 5 star hotel you will not find it here but it satisfied our needs of a place to stay while in Venice. My only real complaint is the shower, I knew from previous reviews that it was small so nothing unexpected there but the shower curtain situation is something that needs improving. You spend most of your shower fighting the shower curtain and trying to keep it from springing closed so you don't flood the bathroom. Otherwise, it was a good place to stay for the location and the price and Maurizio was very quick to respond to any messages while we were there. If you are traveling on a budget I would definitely recommend.
