This location couldn’t have been more ideal … I didn’t count, but it must have been fewer than 50 steps from Piazza San Marco. The apartment was very clean, appealingly designed, and excellently maintained. The bed was very comfortable. There was a nice amount of light from the windows — no view, but we weren’t there to see Venice from our hotel room. This is a place for very able-bodied travelers only. The two flights of steps are very steep. The host was remarkably accommodating, creating an opportunity for us to drop our bags four hours prior to check-in. This was not necessary, very much appreciated, and part of what makes them an excellent host.
