We called Stefano’s apartment a jackpot. Book it if it’s available! Location is perfect. A little more than a hundred meters from the san zacarria vaporetto stop. From this stop, you can go anywhere including the islands murano and burano. From the san zacarria stop, it is an easy walk to the apartment with luggages. You won’t have to carry heavy bags over bridges. There was no trouble locating the apartment because the host was already at the meeting point near the vaporetto stop when we arrived. A very short block away from the apartment (30 second walk, if that) are restaurants, bars and a pharmacy. Piazza san marco is an easy 3-5 min walk. You pass by the bridge of sighs along the way. The apartment itself was great. The fully airconditioned unit was a respite from the heat. There were 2 AC’s on full blast that kept the whole unit cool. It’s what i loved most about the apartment. Plus the balcony! Great place to hang out watching gondola’s pass by. Thank you Stefano for hosting us and for your very prompt replies to my questions. We had a great time in your apartment!
