This is the perfect apartment for a couple or a couple and 1 child. The rooms are furnished in a simple manner but with everything you need. Plenty of towels and toiletries were provided. It is only a short flight of stairs. It is located in a secluded and serene part of the city. The canal below is quiet and lovely. You must accept that you will get lost in Venice but it is really fun to do so. Pay attention to Paolo's directions as they are perfect. You can walk anywhere in the city from the apartment. We made simple breakfasts and plenty of coffee in the apartment but otherwise were gone for the rest of the day until 10 in the evening. Communications with Paolo were effortless.
