The neighbourhood and surroundings (See on Google Maps)
Few tourists venture into this working-class and residential neighbourhood in the sestiere of Castello, except to go to Riva degli Schiavoni, the esplanade that runs alongside Saint Mark's Basin. The contrast is striking between the crowded promenade and the peaceful tranquillity (not to mention the cool shade in the summer) found on such narrow streets as Salizada dei Greci, and San Lorenzo or San Severo. Salizada dei Greci, with its markets and Venetian trattoria, is the neighbourhood’s main street.
The apartment is easy to get to by vaporetto (San Zaccaria), and is only a 10-minute walk from Saint Mark's square.
The apartment
This sunny, quiet, and charming fourth-floor apartment (41 m²) features exposed ceiling beams and parquet floors. There is no elevator access. The building is on a classically Venetian square.
The living room/kitchen (16 m² - north facing) has two windows that overlook the San Giorgio dei Greci Church and the Ponte dei Greci bridge. There is a table and chairs, a cabinet, a single sofa-bed, and a radio with a CD player.

The bedroom (11 m² - north facing) contains two windows that overlook the San Giorgio dei Greci Church and a double bed, a bedside table, and an armoire.
