Do not think twice about booking this apartment. It is like a full home to enjoy, large dining room, huge living area, bathtub too! The manager Orsola was incredibly delightful, prompt and professional. She even arranged a private water taxi (extra fee) for me from the airport and provided insight and tips during my entire trip. The apartment is utterly enchanting and the view of the Grand Canal and Rialto Bridge is priceless. This apartment is set just off a Main Street (through two large iron key locked gates) and a 7 minute walk to the nearest public taxi (Vaporetto) station (Rialto). Incredibly convenient for getting around Venice easily. Just get on the Vaporetto and ride around Venice for an hour your first day to orient! You will need to take your luggage up 4 large flights of stairs to the door—so prepare and pack accordingly. The stairs are carpeted and rather shallow. No elevator, but this is very typical for Italy. Everything was clean and tidy. The apartment is quiet, even being on the canal. The bed and pillows were workable for a few nights. The living room is simple and functional, as is the rest of the house. Kitchen has everything you need, with coffee. Salt and pepper. Granola bars. Beautiful moulding, chandeliers and herringbone wood floor details. French doors lead out to the balcony with small cafe table. Book and enjoy. This is a safe bet for Venice. Thanks Orsola.
