Andrea was away the week of our visit but had arranged for my wife and I to be met and accompanied to the apartment. The apartment was well equipped, very comfortable, well furnished and the small garden a real bonus. It's in a very quiet area of Venice and it was great to return to after a busy day's sightseeing. The Rialto and St Marks are within an easy walk and there are restaurants and shops nearby. We highly recommend this apartment to anyone visiting Venice.
