What an absolutely fantastic experience! Paolo met us at the vaporetto and walked us to the apartment. The building is right on a canal across from a piazza. You could lean out the window and watch the gondolas glide by. We were steps away from a fantastic restaurant and a block away from a grocery store. It is located conveniently between the Rialto Bridge and San Marcos Square. We would visit one site, drop off our purchases and go on to the next. We were traveling with another couple and had plenty of space. The bathrooms were great and the bedrooms were spacious. I really do not think the posted pictures do the apartment justice. I would give this apartment six stars if I could.
