We stayed in this apartment for 4 nights during January. Nicola met us at the apartment for checkin and was very friendly and thorough in showing us through the apartment, even though it was quite late in the evening. We stayed as a family of 4 with two young children. The apartment was very clean throughout with modern appliances and furnishings and plenty of room for a young family. The bedroom upstairs was quite spacious, although the mattress on the king size bed was a little soft for our liking. The bathroom was also very clean and spacious, with a fabulous jacuzzi being a highlight. With Nicola operating an art gallery close by, there is a significant amount of artwork on display in the apartment. Not all the artwork may be to everyone's tastes, but some of it is quite evocative!
The location of the apartment cannot be beaten. Barely a two minute walk from St Mark's square, yet very quite and private. It is also only a few minutes walk to the major boutiques in San Marco, as well as the San Marco-Vallaresso vaporetto stop.
Overall this was an excellent apartment in a great location. The only minor negative we could find was the lack of natural light in the living area, but given the style of the architecture of many of the buildings, this is probably common across most of Venice.
We would definitely recommend this apartment to anyone wishing to stay in Venice!
