Orsola the property manager was friendly and professional. She anticipated that maneuvering the small alleys of Venice is disconcerting when one first arrives, and she met us at the nearest vaporetto (water bus) stop and guided us to the apartment. The home is pristine and beautiful, and since we have young children I was relieved that the tables and chairs are sturdy materials. The location is convenient to groceries (5-minute walk), restaurants, and San Marco square/cathedral (10-minute walk). It was ideal for our family of 6, although it would have been even better to have a small, spare mattress available for a child. Even though we ate most meals out, we did miss having a dishwasher. Thankfully a clean sponge and dish soap were provided. The kitchen was small and (I believe) lacking wine glasses, but the dining room table was very comfortable for 6 people. We would absolutely return!
