Great experience in Venice for our family of 5. Apartment was exactly as described, host met us at the boat shuttle as promised and provided tips and a complete explanation of the apartment and Venice. Apartment was very clean and a great location to get a real feel for a real Venetian neighborhood! Would highly recommend for families. The walk to the apartment from the water bus station was only about 5 minutes and a 15-20 min boat ride to St Marks.
