This apartment is a magical place from which to explore all the wonders of Venice. The design of the apartment itself, which is classical yet contemporary, inspires with its bright colors and playful light. Every possible amenity one could desire is available, including great air conditioning and water pressure. From the wall colors (a blue room and an orange room) to the window shades (which cast lovely shadows over the floor), the books on the Biennale in a little reading room to the ceramic coffee cups of unusual size, it is all so well thought out. Opening up the windows on the south-west side, one can delight in the canal and even sunset. Indeed,
the area is less touristic and more local in atmosphere. The apartment is a short walk from the train station as well as Madonna dell'Orto, where one can catch the boat to or from the airport. A grocery store in an old theater with wall and ceiling frescoes is just a few blocks away, the Despar Teatro Italia. And when one goes out, the street below is full of fine and fun restaurants, it is a short walk to the Strada Nova shopping street, and then one can just hop, skip, and jump through the labyrinth of Venice to all the main cites of cultural heritage. I highly recommend and look forward to our next stay!
