We had a very good stay in Venice. The check-in is at a nearby hotel, not the apartment itself, but the people at the hotel were very very kind and even printed our train ticket for us! As other reviews say, the tourist tax is €4, not €3. The apartment itself was not as far from the touristy part of Venice as we thought, maybe a 15 minute walk to Rialto bridge. Don’t leave the windows open too long because we accidentally let in some mosquitos. Other than that we had a lovely stay!
