Could not have been happier about the location. It's a 15 minute, very easy walk from the train station, and located not even a minute away from the San Toma vaporetto (if you opt to use it), or the traghetto crossing (2EUR per person to cross the canal). We vastly preferred this area over the neighborhood near San Marco... all of Venice is highly touristy, but San Toma felt a little more relaxed. The location is a ~10 min walk to the Rialto bridge, and another 10 min from there to San Marco plaza. The apartment was clean, just as pictured. We were met exactly on time. Thanks for the great visit!
