Great place, great location! 2 br, 2 baths! We are two friends traveling together, so that was perfect. Air conditioned! Truly minutes to St. Mark's. What is not to like? We never cooked there, too many good restaurants nearby, but it is well equipped. (Except for the Nespresso which wasn't working. :( ) We arrived at a very crowded, busy time, and it took 2 hours to get from the train station to the St. Mark's stop on the vaporetto, mostly in the direct sun. The stop we wanted was St. Zaccariah, the next stop, but it was confusing, so we still had to walk after we got off. Other more expensive transportation options were available, which we might have opted for, if we had known. Wonderfully, Andrea (and his daughter) was there to meet us, show us the way to the apartment, and give us a hand with luggage up the 34 steps. (We are not as young as we used to be.) It was a great place and suited all our needs. The management was responsive, although we didn't need much after we got there, as everything was fine. We asked for someone to help us with luggage, getting it down and to the water taxi, when we left (for $) which was cheerfully provided. Our helper also agreed to take the trash out for us, as it is complicated, certain days for certain things (Venice rules, not the management.). That was appreciated. The public WC being nearby was a non-issue. I would stay here again, and definitely recommend it.
