The apartment was walking distance to the rialto bridge, water bus stops and st marks square. There is a coop by the Rialto Bridge which is great. The air con keeps the bedrooms cool (although is it quite loud). We met a lady at the estate agents, she was prompt and pleasant and walked us to the property. There are 52 steps up to the flat from the street- which can be tricky after a long hot day walking around the city. It was clean with towels and bedding provided. When you arrive you will be asked to pay the city tax of €1.50 per person per day. And you will be told that there are additional charges for any mess left in the apartment (If any rubbish is left behind or if the is any washing up that need to be done).
There is a lovely restaurant in the square behind the appartment- the food there was the best that we had during our stay in Venice.
