Chiara's house is such a charming, special place! We absolutely loved it. It is in the perfect location -- steps from the Rialto Bridge, and yet feels like a getaway from the busy streets of Venice with its peaceful rooftop decks and spacious interior. Air conditioning was a blessing, the rooms are comfortable and decorated with good taste and it had all the essentials and some treats to welcome us on arrival. It is on the top floor so the many flights up lugging bags is not for faint of heart but believe me it is totally worth it! Chiara and her daughter were welcoming and always responsive to our questions and needs. We will definitely be back!!
