The apartment is beautiful and a great place to stay in. It's quiet but very close to restaurants and 10 minute walk from the Rialto, 15 minute walk from St. Mark's Sq. The one part that we were a bit surprised about was having to pay a "renter's tax" upon arrival. Though it was not much (10 euro for our stay of 2 nights) it was unexpected that we'd have to pay additional fees or 'rent' on-site, in cash. Other than that, the hostess was nice and showed us some good spots to eat and routes to take.
