Giovanni met us from the boat and took us to the apartment. He showed us the where to find the local supermarket the restaurants. These were a 5 minute walk from the apartment
The apartment is well located, 15 minute brisk walk from St Mark's Square. It is far enough away to avoid the crowds but close enough to walk to the tourist attractions of Venice. The apartment is modern, well decorated and was spacious. The kitchen was well equipped with cooking utensils, pots, pans, cups, plates etc.
Giovanni was well organised, and responded to my pre-trip enquires promptly. He had lots of recommendations of where to eat good, reasonably priced food in restaurants frequented by the local Venetian people. Thanks Giovanni :-)
