Matteo and Matilde met us at the water bus stop and welcomed us to the apartment. Their was cold wine on arrival and an excellent suggestion list of what to see, do and eat in Venice. Best of all for the hot days was the efficient freezer! We could have as much ice as we wanted. The rooms are spacious and with blackout shutters. The location was fantastic! We came back for an afternoon siesta every day, because it was so central. There are pros and cons being located right next to markets. Pro: we had fresh sea food and fruit at our finger tips, Con: they start setting up for the martlet at 3:30am. We would happily stay here again however as the location and area was fantastic.
