the place is as described. it is a little dark though, so even on a sunny day, not much sunlight comes inside the bedroom(s) (but one doesn´t go to Venice to stay indoors, right ;-). from the Vaporetto stop, 3 bridges need to be crossed (inevitable in Venice). Daria was very helpful, giving us good guidance where to find a supermarket and good restaurants. in comparison with hotel prices in Venice and in particular in San Marco, the appartment is very good value for the money.
