Do not be put off by the very interesting access to this beautiful apartment - it is a gem, even by Venetian standards. The view from the front balconies over the little piazza is so typically Venetian, the internal decor is lovely and being two minutes form the Piazza San Marco is priceless. It is not just close to the Piazza San Marco, it is close to the Vaporetti station, the route to the Rialto and just about everywhere you need to go in Venice. And it is beautifully clean and stylishly decorated and sparkling clean.
