This apartment is in a fantastic location a few hundred feet off of San Marco Plaza. This made getting home after a day of walking the city very easy both on foot and by boat. Everything points to S. Marco and so you do not need to really think about where you are going until you get there and then it is an easy walk off the square.
The apartment was on the top floor and had a very nice view of the roof tops of Venice. It was also one of the cleanest places we stayed while on our trip to Italy and cleanliness is a HIGH value to us.
The owner of the home was super helpful with making arrangements and communicating to us. And he met us at the boat to lead us to the apartment which was very helpful.
The reason this did not get 5 stars was that the amenities in the kitchen were quite spars (no microwave, or tea kettle, or simple things like salt, pepper, napkins) and the bedrooms did not have A/C or screens on the windows so we got bit by mosquitoes each night.
The location and cleanliness out weighed the downsides for us, and I would consider this place again on our next visit.
