In an excellent location for Fondamenta Nuove Vaporetto stop and travel to the airport and the Islands. This area is quite quiet and residential and it is very easy to walk to the main sights of San Marco and Rialto; Santi Giovanni e Paolo is a few minutes walk. From the bedroom window one can see across the rooftops spires and church statues of Venice to the mountains in the distance- we had some wonderful clear views of the Alps during our stay. We found some great good value local bars, trattorie and restaurants. The apartment is very well equipped and spacious and could sleep four easily- it is a very reasonable price for Venice. One big drawback when we stayed was a lack of gas supply- this meant no hot water for washing, no shower (shower not electric), no working hob on the cooker and I suppose no heating (although we did not need heating during our stay in September). Check in was arranged and rearranged to suit our travel arrangements, thanks for that Pierre. Pierre was communicative and recommended some great reading to me- thanks again. I would happily stay here again- if the gas supply gets sorted out- so good luck with that Pierre!
