This apartment was everything we were looking for in Venice. It is extremely close to the water ferry, so no hauling your luggage over tons of stairs. It is off one of the side canals and during the day you get to see and hear the singing gondola drivers, which to me was heartwarming. This apartment is in a really nice part of Venice close to all the high end shopping and felt very safe and secure. Both the bedrooms and bathrooms were nice and updated. We didn’t cook, but if you plan too, the kitchen is stocked with utensils, pots and pans, and dishes. AC in every room was a big plus. The washer and dryer were life savers! Great communication with the owner! He even met us at the dock and when we missed the right boat, came and met us half way and helped carry our luggage back to the apartment. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here!
