Few places are as great as advertised and how they appear in pictures. This one exceeded all my expectation. Also, as they say, location, location, location. This had it all, near the water bus station (4 min walk to door of apartment), great bakery downstairs, nice pizzerias / restaurants seconds away (yes less than a minute), three great views from balcony. A jump to San Marco (5-7 min walk) and 12-15 min walk to Rialto. And did I say right by a canal, I mean, on the Canal. And, BTW, I stay 100-200 nights a year in hotels (Business Traveler), so when I say GREAT, it typically means MAGNIFICENT/EXCELLENT for most people.
