We really loved staying in Irene's apartment - it was exceptionally clean, spacious, and in a great location. Irene was also wonderful in communicating with us. The building itself is beautiful, and the views (as apt is on top floor) of the canal were great. It's a bit off the tourist track and was very quiet at night. The air conditioning was a welcomed treat as it was very warm outside while we stayed. I would definitely try to stay here again next time I'm in Venice!
