We met the woman working at Giovanni's shop. She promptly called Giovanni and he arrived within 5-10 minutes. We walked over to the apartment, about a 5 min walk. Giovanni gave us a tour of the apartment. I inquired about a market in the area and he provided directions. The apartment is in a good location, convenient to St Mark's Sq. and is tucked away where it is quiet and off the beaten path of the tourist activity.
