The apartment location is ideal. It's a short walk from Piazza San Marco. Although there is no elevator, the stairs were easy to manage. The place is very clean, and the pictures are accurate. I would definitely enjoy staying here again.

From initial booking to arrival, the communication was excellent and help getting to the apartment was greatly appreciated and went very well. We arrived during the film festival so all private water taxis were not available when we arrived but Giulio and Elena walked use right through what to do to arrive and start to enjoy our stay. The location is excellent. Close to everything! Literally minutes walks to any destination in Venice. The space is large, the head space is a bit of an issue I’m 6’2” so just had to duck a bit. The people of Venice were very friendly and it made our trip one to remember for all the right reasons! The apartment is down a narrow pathway and it’s a bit dark but we always felt safe as there are many side streets that have many hidden places to explore.

This apartment looks exactly like the pictures. It was only a few minutes from San Marco square and Rialto bridges making it a prime location. We loved the decor and wood beams. Giulio and his daughter,

We were met at Rialto bridge after taking a water boat from the airport and escorted to the apartment and shown all of the features of the apartment. The apartment is open (one bedroom) but very spacious and was prefect for our family with 2 teens. The apartment was clean and well stocked. The location was excellent, only a few minutes to Piazza San Marco but very quiet. Ed was very responsive and easy to communicate with. The apartment is very unique and the architecture is stunning.

5 min from st marks plaza down a quiet alley in historic building. This was our 5th apartment stay in a 2 week trip across Italy all in VRBO apartments. Pros: location, spacious, full kitchen with all pots, plates, toaster, etc. AC worked great despite being converted attic space and 90 degrees outside. Very quiet, no street noise. Full size washer with instruction manual was great. Things that could make this rental even better: setting up a self check in process or lockbox for the keys. We did have to wait until 1430 to check in instead of 12pm due to manager’s schedule (though to be fair this was communicated to me in advance. But our prior city’s VRBO was not flexible on a later check out so after arriving by train, we had to hang out with all our luggage for a couple hours at the restaurant at the corner of the street Osteria San Marco until check in. It worked out as they had space for us and the food was good though it was our most expensive meal in Venice. The apartment owner did recommend eating around train station which would have been cheaper as an alternative but we were not as familiar with that area). A few small touches would have been nice: providing new kitchen sponges, small soaps/shampoos for shower (we bring our own but some people may not be prepared), replacing the towels which are a bit thin. The things you must know before coming are there are a lot of steps, essentially 4 flights up. Not a problem for us but good cardio workout. watch out for beams!
