Located only a few minutes from the Rialto Bridge, Apt Stivaletto is in a fantastic location, yet is tucked away on a quiet street and provides a soothing refuge from the bustling streets of the San Marco neighborhood. The apartment is tastefully decorated, spacious, comfortable and clean. With two bedrooms and two bathrooms, it is perfect for families or two couples. The kitchen is well equipped and both a Coop grocery store and the Rialto fruit/fish market are nearby, so you don't have to go broke eating every meal at a restaurant. That said, one of the best pizza places in Venice is about 20 meters from the front door.

We arrived via the Alilaguna boat from the airport and Gianluca greeted us at the Rialto stop, escorted us to the apartment, got us settled and gave us restaurant recommendations. He was extremely helpful, accessible, kind and genuine. He also arranged to meet us for our departure, but regretfully we ended up leaving slightly earlier than planned so missed him.

I highly recommend Apt Stivaletto!
