This was a wonderful apartment with an incredibly nice host. She went WAY out of her way to accomodate us when there was a vaporetto strike and was in constant communication with us throughout our stay, always available at a moment's notice to answer any questions. The apartment is small but clean, with comfortable beds. The slanted floors make you feel like you're on a boat sometimes. But hey, it's Venice! The noise from the street isn't bad because the windows are made very well and equipped with mosquito nets. Lots of things that make you more comfortable: spare blankets, sheets, pillows, good water pressure, a dishwasher, washing machine, etc. We were a family of six and although a little bit cramped, we were quite comfortable. The location is incredible, just steps from the Rialto. You walk up one flight of narrow steps from the street (more like an alley) to arrive at the apartment. The fish market is nearby and so are some very nice restaurants.
