Elisa's flat in Venice is perfect. It is located a 20 minute walk from the hustle and bustle of St Marks Square but only 10 minutes from via Giuseppe Garibaldi, which has a great range of restaurants, bars and cafes that are much less touristy than other parts of Venice.
The flat is located in a very quiet residential neighbourhood with a supermarket almost next door. It's easy to get to with a jetty for taxis (boat) 1 minute away and a public bus (boat) stop 10 minutes. The flat is gorgeous, spacious, modern, extremely clean and a perfect place from which to see Venice. If I lived in Venice permanently I would like to live here.
The flat is on the third floor of a very quiet residential block (no lift). We never heard any of the neighbours and, with the windows closed, you cannot hear a thing from outside.
I would definitely recommend this flat.
