Michela was a gem to communicate with. She was on top of everything and guided us through arrival and departure with ease. Her guide book gave nice tips. The apartment is exactly as photographed. The view was perfect for us to watch the carnival water parade. It is perfectly situated to make your way to any location in Venice. Having the vapperato right below next to the market was convenient. We also took the private water taxi on arrival and departure. The boat comes right below the apartment making it easy for our 5am departure to the airport.
The apartment is on the second floor with 5 short flights of stairs. (Husband had recent leg surgery but managed fine). The entryway needs renovation as mentioned by others, but just seemed to fit in with the feel of old Venice. Once inside the apartment is modern,clean and has all amenities needed.
Even though the fish market is below, there are no fish smells inside the apartment. We loved being able to shop at the market and cook our own meals a couple of times during our 10 day stay.
We would definitely tell anyone considering a stay in Venice to consider this lovely place.
