Cinzia was flexible and helpful. She provided a map of the city (which proved invaluable, as Google Maps is somewhat useless in Venice), as well as a list of her favorite restaurants and wine bars. The apartment was spacious and relaxing, with a canal literally right outside the front windows. Campo Santa Maria Formosa (the square where the apartment is located) is lively with many shops and restaurants nearby. Very walkable location, once you figure out where you're walking to! St Mark's Square/Doges Palace only 5 minutes away, Rialto about 10 minutes.
