Sandra's apartment was in a wonderful location and she made the visit very easy for us. She gave me detailed instructions for getting from the airport, met me at the ferry dock and spent time with me and a map of Venice showing me her favorite spots.

The apartment was large and very comfortable. We had everything we needed in the kitchen and the bath. There was lots of natural light and we were a short walk from the Rialto Bridge and St. Mark's. The only thing to know is that the apartment is somewhat noisy. It's an old building, so it's not got great soundproofing and we could hear everyone in the hall and on the street. But since it's on a quiet back street, there wasn't too much noise at night or early in the morning.

All in all, a good experience. I'd highly recommend it.
