The apartment was very easy to get to from the vaporetto, but down a secluded little ally and with its own private courtyard. Very quiet at night. We arrived after dark , which was intimidating for me, but our meeting point was easy to find and we were met by Leia and everything went very smoothly. The apartment was a comfortable size for the two of us. My only complaint would be in the bathroom. There was only one set of towels and they never dried this time of year, (we were here 4 nights)even when we hung them out back, and the shower was incredibly tiny, even by Italian standards. Over all it was a simple, basic apartment in a great spot by an accommodating host.
