Our 1-month stay in Venice was wonderful and it was due in large part to the wonderful home we were staying in while there. This apartment was centrally located and was fully stocked to include a large library. The kitchen had all the necessary appliances and a wash machine for our clothes and a dish washer. Several grocery stores were very close and on the main alley, there were plenty of restaurants to choose from if we did not want to cook at home. Every day we ventured out and explored museums, exhibitions, stores, and the local areas. About a 15 minute walk from the bus or train station, you will cross over many bridges but taking a water taxi was also convenient. We will absolutely return to Fiorenza's residence the next time we visit Venice.
