The apartment is close to the main train station and is an easy walk to both the Rialto and Piazza San Marco. It is located off a small canal that feeds into the Grand Canal, which you can see if you lean out of the window. The apartment is well isolated from the crowds of Venice, which was a plus for us after a day of touring. I cannot say much about the amenities of the apartment because we spent most of our time outside of the apartment exploring Venice.
