We stayed here because it was one of the few with a view of the canals and air conditioning. I am so glad we had the air conditioning, it was very hot weather while we were in Venice. We had earplugs for my daughter who was in the room on the canal and she did need to use them at night. The restaurant very near the apartment was pretty good and it was nice to not have to go far after a long airplane flight. Chiara met us when we arrived, gave us a tour of the apartment, and gave us a map and showed us where everything in the city was that we wanted to see. Be ready to have 4 euros a person per night for the hotel tax to give Chiara when you arrive! We weren't ready, oops!
