What a fabulous find. Everything about Marika’s place was simply wonderful. First: location. Just a short few minuted from Fondamente Nove. This made getting anywhere in the area as easy as getting around Venice can be (wink). Yet, the apartment is tucked away on a quiet street, making it a sweet and quiet respite. St Mark’s, Rialto Bridge, Bienale we’re all an easy walk away...and the vaporetto was incredibly close. The apartment is newly done. Modern and up to date with an elevator, washer/dryer, and such charm (yes, it has a Venetian chandelier!) with all the modern conveniences. It is really wonderful and we feel so lucky to have found such an amazing place for our time in Venice. And, I’ve got to mention how thoughtful Marika’s associate was about check-in...met us at Fondamente Nove...gave us a thorough tour and explanation of the area and everything in the apartment. If you’re looking at this apartment, don’t hesitate, it’s an incredible find!
