We were a young couple who visited Venice for one week in the winter. The apartment was at a very convenient location for us because it is not right in the center where the hustle and bustle is, but still within 20 minutes walk through very beautiful streets and canals we could be at Rialto or St. Marco. What is great about the location is that there is a super market at 2 minutes walk, so for us that was very important because we cook and supermarkets in Venice are not that frequent (we were glad we didn't have to carry shopping bags for a long distance).

Mauricia and her husband are very welcoming people. They stay at the neighboring apartment, so whatever we needed they were always there to advice or provide it.

The apartment itself is very cozy. The kitchen is fully qeuipped and the table easily fits 6 people. The living room is rather small, but there is a very nice corner by the entrance next to a gothic column that can be used for sitting as well. On the downside I have to say that my height (175cm) is the maximum height that can comfortably walk in the apartment. The ceiling is very low at many points, especially in the bathroom, so I would not recommend it to tall people. Also due to the low ceilings the amount of light that is entering the house is limited.

Generally we would recommend it to everybody who would like to stay on the island of Venice, but not right in the center, which at times can be extremely crowded and loud. Also for the ones who like traditional architecture, this house has a long history and immediately gives the feeling of Venice.
