The apartment is everything that you could want for a short stay in Venice. It is central without being noisy, has Aircon so is nice and cool, has a basic kitchen if you want to prepare food, there is a supermarket on the corner so you can pick up some snacks or cold beers. Less than 10 minutes walk to San Marco. Maurizio was a great host, available if we needed him and gave us some great local advice. All in all I couldn't recommend the apartment more. Even in peak tourist season we really enjoyed our visit. PS the shower is small but it's a small price to pay for the rest of the conveniences.
