This was our first trip to Venice, Italy. Our party consisted of myself, my mother and two daughters. The location was excellent, with an incredible view of the canals directly out of the common room windows. We very much enjoyed watching the seemly effortless maneuvers of the boats moving through the water. The apartment felt very safe and quite. It was well appointed with all of the comforts of home. One of my main considerations in choosing an apartment was the ease of accessing the train station. This apartment is in an excellent location to be able to do just this. I was contacted by a representative of the hosts, Christine, who did an wonderful job of giving directions and information regarding the water taxis. The apartment was graciously stocked with prosecco and crackers, breads etc. We loved our stay in Venice and I would recommend this apartment and its representatives to anyone hoping to have an adventure in Venice. I hope we will return... I would love to stay again!
