We were looking for a place that was comfortable for our small family, in a quieter area away from the tourist crowds and would allow us to experience what it would be like to live in Venice for a short time and this is exactly what we got. The pictures are accurate and the apartment was clean, private and quiet. It has a private entrance on a small street just off the main street from the San Stae Vapparetto stop which is very convenient for getting to and from the air port on the alilaguna line. Even though the entrance is on the ground, the apartment is upstairs and you can look out windows that look down upon the street. the outside seating area was very nice and quiet and private ad well where we took our morning coffee (made with mokka pot of course.) but if you would rather there is a couple of good backery and cafe within 1 min walk. there is also a fresh produce stand a small grocery and multiple really good restaurants close by and a good pizza take out place steps away. we tried them all and were not disappointed.
