The apartment os quite nice. The bed is very comfortable(firm), and there is ppenty of hot water. Kitchen equipment is limited but adequate, since no one wants to cook too much in Venice. The view from the living room onto the canal is great(see picture).
Bt what makes this place so special is its location. We have stayed in Venice three times, alwas near the Campo San Giacomo dall'Orio, and it is just the perfect place. The Campo itself is a playground for Venetian kids of all ages and a gathering place for families in this mainly residential neighborhood. It's great to just sit there and observe. The apartment is about 50 yards from the Campo. Even closer are a bakery/cafe, a gelato shop, and our favorite restaurant La Zucca (a word of warning. It is very popular, so if you don;t make freservations far in advance, just try to make them for lunch. It;s not as difficult.
Madalena was a very responsive host. Shen we go back to Venice, we would hope to stay there again.
