Giulio’s apartment is perfectly placed. It’s close enough to walk to all the tourist places but very quiet too in a residential area. Take slippers or flip flops to keep your feet warm as all floors are (beautiful) marble. In the kitchen many basics are there -salt, pepper, oil, coffee, tea, sugar.
The bathroom is very small, and the shower very high up - ok if you’re 6feet but it would be good to have had a lower down hook too. The sofa bed is a small double but looked very comfortable. The bedroom is large. High ceilings throughout to help keep cool in the summer. Mosquito’s are the silent type and were there early April so take repellent with you as you don’t see or hear them! Lots of coffee shops/bars on the road to the apartment and the supermarket is very close.
We had 3 full days in Venice. First spent walking around everywhere (trainers essential); 2nd boat trips to Burano (ok), Murano (lovely) and cemetery island (beautiful); 3rd booked free Venice tour on line and this was fantastic. Short €2 gondola ride across the grand canal rather than pay €80. Good food and drink prices very similar to UK. If you’re going over a bank holiday all supermarkets are closed so check first. Usually I’d take a frozen carton of milk that would be defrosted the following day but didn’t this time!
