This is a stunning property. The view from the balcony window overlooking the Grand canal is awesome. Venice is crowded and hot in summer. Early morning and late afternoon are cooler and quieter. So walk early and late and the balcony solves the problem of what to do in that midday to 5pm slot. Just buy some suitable food and drink and people watch. For us the scene was riveting.
The apartment is very clean and very well equipped. We found the beds very comfy and, with the balcony doors closed its very quiet. The location within Venice is almost perfect.
