I stayed at Andrea’s place with a friend and it was perfect for our four day trip to Venice. The location is superb and Andrea provided detailed photo instructions which made it easy to find (it’s very easy to get lost in the backstreets Venice!). It’s a 15 minute walk to the Rialto Bridge and less than 10 minutes to St Marks - we always chose to walk along the waterfront but it’s also fun winding your way through the backstreets. There’s also a great little patisserie around the corner and a handful or good restaurants if you don’t want to venture too far. Being slightly set back from the waterfront is perfect in terms of noise levels (virtually none). But just a few steps and you are right in the action. The apartment is basic as we expected but I could not fault it for our girls trip.
