Location location location.The apartment an excellent location and was located close to St Mark's square and was easy to find when we first arrived. No small thing in the maze of streets and alleys that is Venice. Donatella proved to be very reponsive to all communication and easy to reach. Apartment was a bargain compared to hotel rates during the heart of the spring season when we were staying. Apartment clean and larger than expected. Bed pretty comfortable especially relative to the many other beds we slept in over 3 weeks in various Italian cities. Lots of space in the bathroom to put your stuff. All in all great place and we would stay again. A few negatives. No internet available, in today's world as much as you depend on the internet kind of a miss but not a deal breaker. There are several restuarants close by that you can get wireless at. There were enough mosquitos that we noticed it. No screens on the windows. dont know if that is a year round thing in venice it was the end of April. Total nitpicks, neither coffee make worked properly and the shower hot water was not that dependable.
