The location of the appartment was great. Short walk from the main bus terminal, were the taxi and shuttle buses have to leave you when arriving to Venice. There was a nice view across the rooftops from the balcony. We loved to sit there, read a book, have a piknik or listen to the birds and churchbells, since there is very little traffic noise in Venice. The interior design inside the appartment was minimalistic but adequate. In my oppinion, if there is a possibility to rent a penthouse, you shoud always choose it. We recommend restaurant called Estro near by, good food and wine, nice service.
