So...I originally booked a different AirBnB for our 3 day stay in Venice during Carnevale. At the last minute the host had to cancel because the boiler broke (understandable). I was a bit freaked out because there wasn't much available. I found this apartment and took a chance. Looking back, I'm shocked this place wasn't booked. The price was extremely reasonable and the apartment is fantastic. The host is fantastic! She provided us with a list of recommended restaurants and wine bars. On our first night there we had an issue opening the door - she showed up right away and helped us get in (there isn't an issue with the door....I was just too jet-lagged to figure out what I'd done wrong :). The apartment is located right between St Marks and the Rialto Bridge, meaning it's ridiculously easy to get to the major sights. It was a short water bus ride from the train station. This is an excellent choice if you're looking for value and convenience.
