Andrea's apartment was great. Location close to the great sites (10 -15 minutes from Rialto and Santo Marco) but far away enough to get a real feel for Venice life in our little neighborhood (especially early in AM and later at night). Apartment was clean, modern and easily accessed by ELEVATOR. Top floor gave us greater privacy. Plenty of light and ventilation. Shannon, Andrea's assistant, was especially helpful and made us feel right at home.
