This is an absolutely lovely apartment -- close to many attractions and to a vaporetto stop, but not in the direct line of the many tourists who come to Venice. The apartment was well furnished -- comfortable sofas, comfortable beds, great air conditioning, completely renovated bathrooms and kitchen. The staff were very responsive to our needs. The elevator was still not working when we stayed here, and it is on the 4th floor, so people who are not able (or willing) to climb should check on this before booking. Despite this, it was a truly lovely place to stay.
