Great location for our first time in Venice. It was so easy to take the Alilaguna from the airport to the stop near the apartment. Also an easy walk to the train station when we were leaving. The apartment is down a small alley off of the main thoroughfare, so it is quiet but close to everything. Lots of wonderful shops, restaurants, markets and fruit and vegetable stands in the area. It is very close to a vaporetto stop, but we walked everywhere and always felt comfortable and safe. Since it was extremely hot while we were there, the air conditioning in the apartment was wonderful to have and it cooled the place down in no time. Though we ate all of our meals out, the kitchen appeared to be well stocked should you want to cook. We would definitely stay here again if we are ever back to Venice.
