This is a lovely apartment in the most amazing location, literally 50m off St Marks Square. The view from the upstairs balcony is stunning looking over the Basilica and the Tower. It would be hard find an apartment with a better view of the square. I particularly loved the church bells ringing on the hour (not too loud) and the delightful smells and sounds of Italy from the streets several floors below. The apartment is about four floors up, accessed by a narrow staircase so it would be best to avoid large, heavy suitcases. The upper floor of the apartment is at roof level and tall guests will need to stoop to avoid the rafters. There is a fully stocked kitchen with gas hob, fridge and coffee-making facilities, and a washing machine resides in the upstairs bathroom. There is a well-stocked Crai supermarket a few streets away and it goes without saying that there are plentiful restaurants, bars and gelaterias right on the doorstep. It was the perfect Venice experience.
