Novella's place is a tranquil paradise amongst the chaos of Venice. I stayed with my mum and 5 month old son for 2 nights. The place was big and has everything you need, it stayed nice and cool on hot days. As described by other reviewers the location can't be beat. We arrived via train and left via boat to the airport both worked well from the apartment location. Novella is lovely, helpful and quick to respond.
