We travelled from the airport by water taxi and as agreed, were met by Lupa at the Giglio stop. She then walked us to our apartment, which was about 5 minutes away. The apartment was in an excellent location just off one of the main routes between St Mark’s Square and the Rialto Bridge. Being just off the main route meant that it was very peaceful, other reviewers have mentioned the footsteps from the apartment above, although we did hear the odd noise from upstairs, we did not find it an issue. The apartment was very clean and comfortable, and very well kitted out, the air-conditioning was excellent, as a result the apartment was very cool, a great escape from the high temperatures outside! With the apartment being in such a great location, it was very easy to get around. We had a thoroughly enjoyable trip!
