The biggest perk of this apartment is its location. It is located on a local canal, near a main drag and a boat “bus” stop. Getting lost in Venice is quite easy; however, this apartment was relatively easy to find with the assistance of the iPhone map. The host also provided a list of local places, one of which was a grocer right down the street. This was great for purchasing snacks and water bottles for the stay (purchase water bottles from the grocery stores, as it is significantly cheaper than i.e. a cafe). Further, the apartment is near a long list of attractions. During our stay, we were able to cover a lot of ground without needing to take any public transportation.
Aside from it’s convenient location, the apartment was also adequately secure. In order to access the apartment, a gate code is required. We felt very comfortable and safe.
Overall, this was the perfect place for our stay. I would highly recommend it to any pair of travelers looking to explore the city on foot.
