This apartment is beautiful, clean plenty of space for the four of us and two service dogs. Venice is amazing, simply amazing. It is away from the most touristy area of St Marks Square (about a 30 minute walk or 10 min on public ferries). I LOVED being away from that area being able to just visiting it & then retreat to our more peaceful, scenic area (still active, but NOT overcrowded & NOT riddled with tourist carts and shops as is the square). The main gate to the complex is DIRECTLY on the canal with a fabulous crepe place and several great places to eat literally right out the door. The crepe place has a line out the door pretty much all day-a must try! The AC works very, very well (awesome!), but is also very noisy. The wi-fi did not work at all & we had to sit at the cafes to check messages, book things online and search for info. for our trip. Wi-fi was fine everywhere except the apartment.
If you have never been to Venice, note that it takes an extra 30-60 minutes hour after parking or exiting the train to get to the apt. (True of most apts. I think). For those whose 1st time in Venice, there are private water taxis so that you do not have to carry all of your things up/down stairs, over bridges, on/off people mover/shuttle. I suggest packing light if you're walking from train/car. Overall a lovely stay! Thank you Milo for hosting us!
