Gorgeous apartment, very spacious..there's a little "deli" next door which is more expensive than the supermarket but has great cheese, wine, bread, olives, ham, etc - good location (close to Realto Bridge) easy access to boats and walking distance to St. Mark's - real Venetian apartment with blown glass chandeliers and antiques - the little terrace was great just for a glass of wine and appetizers before going out for dinner - make sure you pay extra for faster wifi with your carrier and have latest version of google maps - sometimes maps works better - remember the "first floor" in Italy is our second floor; so the elevator was very helpful because we had two large suitcases, backpacks, etc - definitely would stay again and Giovanna was wonderful!
