A very comfortable, well-equipped, quiet and clean apartment just off the beaten track yet within minutes walk of the excellent fruit and fish market and the Rialto bridge. Venice was cold and wet during our stay, but the apartment has a brilliant heating/ AC system which kept us lovely and warm. There's also a very good restaurant, 'Ristorante ai Botteri' just down the street towards the Grand Canal. To reach the apartment, take the vaporetto to 'Rialto' and cross the bridge turning to your right immediately once over and follow the canal through the market and over the small bridge until you reach 'Calle dei Botteri'. It is directly across from Ca' d'Oro. Turn left here and walk to the end of the street where you'll find number no. 1895. There's a handy Co-op and cake shop store 5 mins away. Turn left out of the apartment and take the first street on the right. Go over the small bridge and cross the first square diagonally. Follow the street for 100 metres or so and turn right when you see shop number 733. Follow until you see the Co-op on your right.
Monica and Fabio left us coffee, orange juice, milk, bread, biscuits,beer etc..as a welcoming package. If we needed anything, we got a reply within minutes. Highly recommend. As a final note, Venice is unfortunately 3rd world for the provision of public toilets. There are some in the vicinity of San Marco-1.50 euro and of course in all the cafes and museums foc.
