The location is amazing- easily walkable from the bus and train station, and easy to walk to anywhere else in Venice. The windows overlooking the canals were so lovely. Watching the gondolas go past the windows was a highlight. The apartment is very simple, but for our purposes (a very short trip) it was great. Vasco was responsive- he brought us a fan when we asked, which made all the difference. No wifi or a/c, but we were very comfortable. The bed is firm but we slept well.
