We stayed in Nicola's apartment for a long weekend, it's very centrally located, just a few minutes walk from San Stae water bus stop, which you can get a water bus from Marco Polo airport, the apartment is very clean ,tidy and spacious, we arrived very early in Venice and Nicola was able to check us in at around 11am which was fantastic, we were very lucky as I don't think anyone was leaving the apartment that morning, otherwise we would have had to wait until later to check-in, the apartment is walking distance from most places, there's plenty of good bars and restaurants around to choose from we dined out in several places and the food was very good and the price's were very reasonable Nicola recommended Antico Gatoleto to us, the food was excellent and the staff were very friendly and polite, we look forward to returning to Venice sometime in the future, Venice is well worth a visit, hopefully we will be able to stay in the apartment again
