Mina met us from the Vaporetto and took us to the apartment which is right on the lagoon. She even gave us a bottle of wine, cakes and fruit!
The apartment was everything expected, large comfortable clean and well equipped, with fantastic views across the water.
The neighbourhood was quiet and off the tourist-track, with local shops and a splendid supermarket close by. And a 15 minute walk took us right into St Mark's.
We will certainly return next time we are in Venice.
