The location was perfect for us knowing we were focusing our trip on the San Marco area. You could literally see the square from the bedroom window. Yes, the bells are very noisy, but we were expecting this as the apartment is so close to the clock tower. I loved the bedroom furniture. It was useful for us to be so close to the main sites and sights as we didn't have to go far with our 1 year old for everything, and were able to pop back for a snack or nap. The apartment was very child friendly, all on one level and our boy loved being able to run around everywhere. We were able to leave our buggy downstairs which saved us lugging it up and down the stairs for every outing. We'd definitely consider staying there again for any future trips and would recommend to anyone wishing to be based in and explore San Marco.
