My girlfriend and I stayed in the apartment for three nights in October. In summary we would HIGHLY recommend this property to anyone visiting Venice. Its perfectly located, close to St Marks, there are loads of really nice restaurants and coffee shops and its a two minute walk from the water boat stop to the airport (Alilaguna).
The host met us as we arrived and showed us everything we needed to know whilst also commending some very nice, less touristy restaurants.
Its perfect!!
