Overall a good stay and excellent service. Location turned out great, 5 minutes to the public water taxi/ferry service or 15-20 minute walk (maximum) to anywhere we wanted to go. I did have to carry our luggage up and down the steps of the Rialto bridge, the closest public ferry drop off, which sucked. You could order private boats though, probably quite expensive. That bridge also gave us easy walking access to Rialto area and San Marco. So I am glad we were close to it. If that is a concern, stay close to a ferry service dock and stay on the same side of the grand canal as the dock. AC could have been a bit better, might be an issue during July/August, room could have been a touch more modern, but it is as pictured.
