Anna welcomed us with access to a space to leave our bags and clean up after our flight even though we arrived a few hours before check-in time. She even made some space to let the kids nap if needed! Anna provided us some snacks and a cake in case we needed to recharge before setting out. She also had a bottle of champagne waiting for us!
The space is beautiful and a great value for a family that doesn't want to pay for multiple rooms to accommodate several people. The courtyard is a quiet oasis from the city and even has a view of the grand canal!
The apartment interior is spacious with a lovely master bedroom and two other upstairs sleeping rooms. Downstairs is a large living room with a pair of sofas, a coffee table, and a small dining table. There's also a small but stocked kitchen, in case you want to cook for yourself.
It was a huge benefit that Anna was able to share her laundry facilities with us so we didn't have to have new clothes for every day.
The neighborhood has everything you may need: restaurants, cafes, wine shops, gondolas, souvenirs, and a vaporetto stop to get you wherever you need to go. It's a good 15 minute walk to Rialto with kids, and another 10 or so to San Marco. Stop in for a cool drink midway and you won't mind it!
This place is a gem and a great value in a city that can get expensive quickly with a family. Thanks Anna!
