Nice apartment overlooking one of the many Venice canals. The walk to the water bus is not far. Cute restaurants and shops nearby and it was quiet and away from the hordes of people in the center of Venice. If you want to be close to St Marks, you would best find a closer (and more expensive) place to stay. Daniela was a great host and the apartment met all my needs. I recommend it to anyone that wants to visit Venice and have a nice, quiet, not boring, neighborhood to stay in.
