The apartment is larger than the photos suggest and in a quiet area with lovely views over the Arsenale and a view of St Mark Tower in the distance from the rear roof terrace. The whole place was of a good quality and everything worked very well. The only advice I would give you is not to over load the electic system otherwise you'll have to re-set it! From the apartment it is easy and very interesting to wander into Venice or within a 2 minute walk you can catch the water bus from Asenale up the Grand Canal or over to Lido Beach. This is well worth a trip especially as the beaches are lovely, the water is warm and calm and the organisation on the beach is top class, albeit you have to pay but it is worth it for the experience.
