Giovanna's flat is ideally situated away from the hustle and bustle, but just a short stroll and you're in the heart of Venice. it's very close to excellent transport links too (around the city but also to and from the airport). The apartment itself is lovely an even better than I expected - spotlessly clean, it was spacious, beautifully decorated and set back from the street it was quiet and tranquil. The wonderfully warm welcome we received on arrival was the icing on the cake. It's a really brilliant place to stay and I can't recommend it highly enough.
