Our apartment was very clean, comfortable, and quite unique, especially with the interesting (& useful) kitchenette that was inspired by a boat's galley kitchen. The apartment also has a courtyard - very nice, and green. A more subtle feature is the two bedrooms being on complete opposite sides of the apartment - great for increased privacy. The location, being on the Grand Canal, makes for a convenient drop-off by water taxi. And if St Mark's Square is important to you, it's only a 15-minute walk. Our host, Giovanni, was very responsive, as we discovered an inoperable microwave. He quickly arrived to diagnose the issue, confirmed it "broken" and had it replaced within a couple of hours while we were out and about. His colleague was also responsive with a quick reply to "where is an actual grocery store?" Thank you!
