You will be staying in a building classified by Venice as a Monument!
Your room has been styled in the traditional Venetian Gondola style... and as we progressed with the decorations, it seems that it has taken on even a bit of a Pirate Ship feel, with a Gold treasure chest and the grand mirror.
It has a cosy feeling to it. Bathroom is shared.

There is also a large entrance, with a coffee bar where you can have coffee or tea free of charge. There is a small fridge and microwave you can use.
The Neighborhood:
San Marco, need I say more?
The area is thee most central and most prestigious of all of Venice! And the centre point of it all is the San Marco Square, The Basilica and it is only a few meters walk away from our monumental home.
Our street is full of restaurants, ranging from prestige genuine Venetian cuisine to Italian Pizza, and bars which are open till late.
less than 5 minutes walk you will find a Grocery store / mini market.
And off course next to San Marco is the home of the most Luxurious High-End brands, such as; Louis Vuitton, Dolce & Gabbana, Prada, Mont Blanc, Fortuny, Cartier, Vertu etc.
Getting Around:
If you are coming to visit for a day, two, three or a week, I recommend getting a 24, 48, 72 or 168 hour Vaporetto ticket (Water Bus service) to give you freedom of travel as well as take the more economical route, specially if you are planing to visit the neighbouring islands such as Murano, Burano or Lido.
If you are 29 years old or under, you can take advantage of the Venice "Rolling Card" which will give you discount on travelling and various museums. (website hidden)
Parking your Car:
Convenient parking can be found at P.le Roma at about €25 per day, or at Tronchetto.
A cheaper option will be to park at the airport which will cost you as little as €5 per day (booked in advance)
Other Things to Note:
The apartment is brand new, it has just been renovated and that is a great benefit knowing that everything is clean and new.
