Our first visit to Venice was a great and memorable experience, thanks in great part to our stay in Giusy's home. Staying in a beautifully restored and artfully decorated house that sits on two canals was amazing. The neighborhood is wonderful, as well, with very good food and drink options within a very short walk. It was easy for us to walk to all parts of Venice that we wanted to see. It was also a short walk to the water transportation options. Giusy provided great assistance in orienting us to good restaurants and to getting around. The breakfast was excellent each morning. Guisy provides a great place to stay when visiting Venice; we hope to return some day.
