This place definitely enhanced our Venice experience. What better way to enjoy the city than sleeping at water level on the Grand Canal, being able to enjoy breakfast and a drink at night on your private terrace immediately adjacent to the water, or even using water taxis which will drop you at your private pier if you choose to? The only downside I can think of is that it may not be as centrally located as other properties, but Venice really isn't that large and walking through the city for half an hour to reach San Marco square is most pleasant. The host was very responsive and I highly recommend this flat.
