We loved staying at Christina's apartment! The location was perfect - very close to the ferry, to markets, to restaurants and an easy walk to St. Mark's Square and the Rialto Bridge. We also loved this location because it was out of the busy touristy areas and felt more "Venice local". The apartment was very well appointed and we had everything we needed to make our stay hassle free and the views were beautiful. There are lots of fresh produce stands and bakeries in most directions that you walk. Christina was wonderful with her communication and was very helpful! We highly recommend taking a ferry to Murano - it's a very short (5-10) minute ride. We also recommend exploring the area around the apartment. Pick an ally - take a turn and see what wonderful sights are just beyond the next corner. We saw so much more than we would have if we just went to the tourist sites!! Enjoy!
