The apartment overlooks a lovely courtyard. It is very well located - close enough but far from the crowds. The apartment is airy and lovely and has an elevator so you don't have to lug bags up flights of stairs. The check in was smooth with clear instructions and the property was nice and clean. The air-conditioners work brilliantly if you do need to use them! We would certainly stay here again. We had only one problem - the bed. I required a double bed and it says so on the listing. However, it is a double bed frame but the mattresses are single and not exactly the same height. This made it virtually impossible to sleep comfortably and the mattresses also used to slip to the side. This was the only problem we faced. I would strongly recommend that Giacomo's place be considered if you are staying in Venice.
