We loved the location and the view from the apartment was great - it is right on the canal with the Arsenale beyond.
The apartment is located in a nice, quiet area directly on the canal, and it was wonderful to be so close to the Arsenale (and also the Arsenale vaporetto stop). A ten-fifteen minute walk from the apartment along the lagoon takes you to the Basilica and St Mark's square. Really easy to get to and extremely beautiful.
Five minutes in the other direction takes you to Via Giuseppe Garibaldi where there are shops, bakeries, cafes and bars. In my opinion it couldn't be in a better location.
The check-in was easy. We arrived late in the evening because of some travel delays but the lockbox meant that we could check in without any trouble.
The apartment was clean when we arrived. The two double beds were comfortable and the sheets were notably crisp and fresh. Four clean towels were also provided.
The bathroom had soap and shower gel, and plenty of loo roll for our stay.
The kitchen had a big, clean fridge and space for four people to eat at the dining table.
There was a coffee machine!
The apartment has sustained some wear and tear and could maybe use a freshen up but for the price you are paying it is great value.
