Francescas place is in a great location - close to restaurants, grocery store and all attractions. The view of the canal and the doors are certainly the main attraction. We were visiting on a very cold week and the heat worked extremely well and we were grateful for that by the end of the day! However, a bit disappointed in the place overall. The furniture was not upscale by any means. The sofas had pillows as cushions and the bedding (blankets and sheets) were worn and appeared dirty. The nightstands were plastic and the lamps in one bedroom didn't even had shades.. The floors amd surfaces were not clean. The shower, although beautiful, was a bit of a challenge as there was nowhere to hang a towel or sit soap except for the floor. Her place has such potential with a little TLC and upgrades.
