The location of the apartment was fantastic. It is set above Campiello Barbaro, possibly the most beautiful little square in Venice, and we've seen quite a few of them now. There are shops (mixed business, Murano glass jewellery and antiques) in the square, and you can enjoy a gelato there. It's hard to explain just how close things are. The Guggenheim is a two minute walk away, and the Corner Pub can be reached in just over that time. The vaporetto and traghetto are also conveniently located. The apartment itself was fine for us (a family of 4, augmented with a family friend for some of the time). The main bedroom and lounge/dining area are spacious. The kitchen and bathroom are small, but fit for purpose. The property is located on the third floor (fourth for Americans), so be prepared for steps. The building's entrance is old and atmospheric. We cannot praise the views from the apartment enough. They were absolutely beautiful. The campiello gets busy in daylight hours with foot traffic passing through, but most tourists are quiet and respectful and the windows block out noise very effectively. Sergio helped us settle in very well and we had a wonderful time.
