Amazing views in a comfortable spacious apartment. Main bed comfortable, bathrooms great, kitchen had very basic equipment. Loved loved loved the neighbourhood, loved the apartment. Orto was a v useful vaporetto stop, amazing cicchetti bars just nearby, at least 5 trattoria, gelati, supermarket, tabacchi with vaporetto tickets and lots of locals. Gondoliers passing occasionally on a very busy canal. We generally slept with windows shut but there was only one morning where it was noisy. Host was impersonal and communication poor, but check in was fine, they showed us where supermarkets were ( they are well hidden but very close!) & everything worked well. vino sfuso to buy local wine just 20 metres away- bring your own bottles! it's a great canal with a lot of life and only short walks to all that Venice has to offer, but you could happily lose a week just exploring the immediate neighbourhood. We loved watching the world go by here and would return in a heartbeat.
