We read all the comments before booking this apartment and were NOT disappointed. Giovanna is a wonderful hostess. We were 45 minutes late arriving due to a special event in Venice but she was there waiting for us. The apartment was perfect for our group - 6 persons - perfectly situated. Less than a minute walk from vaporetto stop. Once we figured out the short cut from the train station - 10 minute walk - there was no stopping us. It`s easy to figure out by the way, just follow the locals. I can`t think of one negative thing to say. The day we return to Venice we won`t even look around, it`s back to Giovanna and this place. We recommend this place with out hesitation.
