The apartment and location are great. It is right near a taxi boat stop. On the map it seems far away from St Marks and other locations, but in fact everything is a short 15 minute walk away. It was perfect for us because of the two rooms -- a master bedroom and then a second room for two beds for our kids. There is a small coop market to buy food and lots of fresh fruit and vegetable stands nearby. It is a great place to stay. The food at many restaurants can be expensive and not good, so we were able to cook a nice meal at the apartment.
