This apartment is in a fantastic location, just a short walk from the Rialto Bridge and the Rialto Mercato vaporetto stop. It's best feature is the rooftop terrace, which is great for an evening drink, and it is immediately adjacent to a beautiful bell tower (which didn't wake us in the morning!) It is near to bars and a pharmacy, and not too far from a supermarket. The apartment has plenty of character - timber beams, polished stone or marble floors, and the kitchen is well-equipped. It has some air conditioning, though not really enough to cool the bedrooms (the twin room got very hot and stuffy). The seating in the lounge was a bit tired, and the water pressure was too low to run a bath - but these are minor issues; the shower worked well, and we didn't go to Venice to sit in the apartment - we went to explore, and the location of the apartment made that very easy. There's a spiral staircase up to a mezzanine level which our children loved. The host was extremely informative and helpful. Overall, good value, would recommend.
