We LOVED staying in Federica's apartment! It was literally minutes away from St. Mark's Square and the Doge's Palace! It was also very very close to the Vaporetto station (San Zaccaria) which made it really easy to get to from the Venezia Santa Lucia train station. Federica was super nice! She met us at the apartment and spent a great deal of time explaining to us where we should visit and where to eat so we would not pay hefty tourist prices. She even provided us with maps and that was extremely helpful! On a side note, her place is relatively close to this pasta place that we HIGHLY recommend, called Dal Moro's - it was the best pasta we had all trip! Thank you so much for all your help Federica! We will definitely come back and stay with you on our next trip to Venezia! :)
