All the praise that this gorgeous place has received is true! I have been coming to Venice for over 10 years and have never stayed at a more stylish, immaculately clean, and beautiful place. Every detail matters-- from the high ceilings (ah, the beautiful painted accents, the beams!), the huge windows, the gorgeous light that streams in, the view of the lovely back garden, to the architectural and design choices that Silvia made--all contribute to making this an elegantly minimalist, chic oasis. As if this were not enough, Silvia and Manuel are dream hosts! We were sad to leave and will come back as soon as possible!
