This is a lovely and very authentic Venetian apartment. It provides very good space for a family (I took my two teenage children) or group of friends. It is in an excellent location on a small canal in central Venice and close to a couple of vaporetta stops on the Grand Canal. Marco and Laura communicated very well with us and quickly answered any questions or requests. We cooked in the apartment a couple of evenings and it is well equipped for cooking. The washing machine was a bonus as we stayed a week. The boat collecting rubbish moors on the canal by the Campiello each morning for about an hour (around 8-9 am approximately) and you can here the garbage collectors walking past the apartment back and forth as they collect rubbish bags from the neighbouring area. We didn’t mind this as usually we were awake by 8am - but it could be something to consider for someone wanting a peaceful lie in bed in later the morning. Overall we would definitely recommend this apartment to friends and family and would happily stay there again.
