Martina's apartment was a great place to stay for our family of four with a large king size bed and 2 single beds. This was our first time in Venice and we found the place conveniently located a few steps from the Rialto bridge. You can take the Vaporetto almost directly to the apartment but we chose to walk from the train station and it was about a 20-minute walk through the maze-like streets. The place is on a busy street and Martina does provide earplugs but we didn't need them; we enjoyed the hustle and bustle of the street below. Martina met us for check-in and was very welcoming. She provided us with recommendations for places to see and eat.
