- Pros: Great location. Roomy apartment. Good instructions to collect key outside of hours. Price great compared to hotels. I would definitely stay here again.Cons: Instructions given to get vaporetta to apartment but would probably be just as easy to walk to apartment than hassle with luggage on/off vaporetta. Would be good if extra key/s provided as there were four of us we were sometimes in and out at different times. Could not find a cork screw in the apartment. Some light bulbs needed replacing. None of this detracted from our great stay in Venice.

- Apartment was clean, spacy, airy, and a wonderful location right next to the ghetto. A longish walk from the agents office to the appartment whilst carrying all of our luggage which was an unexpected hinderance.

- Great location - near the train station and in the Ghetto just off the main avenue. Vaporetto convenience is also excellent, though not on the main routes available on the Grand Canal. Picking up the key was a little out of the way but not too terrible. Apartment itself is massive, almost absurdly so, with kitchens and bathrooms everywhere. We had 7 people and it was way too big. Not posh or particularly comfy but clean and gracefully appointed. Lots of windows for excellent natural light, a fact which you'll appreciate in summer when you realize there's no AC and need a breeze. Just open the 86 windows! Not very convenient to St. Mark's Square, a fact which initially concerned us. We later came to view it as a blessing, as we felt insulated somewhat from the insanity of the August tourist crush. The original ghetto "island" is right around the corner. (Very, very cool. Who knew there was a place in Venice for kids to run around? People in the ghetto are so nice too - they seem to be grateful that you've come to see it.) Several excellent shops near the apartment with market goods and sandwiches and the ever-present pizza. We loved Cannaregio. 4 stars instead of 5 because it was pricey and lacked a comfortable area large enough for everyone to gather.
