We loved our stay!! The apartment is so clean, easy to access, and safe. It is very close to public transport stops(3 minute walk) , but out of the very touristy area of Venice. It is a short walk ( 15 minutes) to St. Marks Square. Great locations for restaurants and access to the Biennale. It is exactly what we wanted, and felt immersed in Venetian life while out of the tourist trap areas.
