I wanted to start with how helpful Cristina is, it was my first time to Venice to celebrate a milestone birthday, every suggestion couldn’t have been any better especially Restaurants as the one for my birthday was amazing with great food and excellent service. The local eateries and bars were such good value and just far enough out to not be overrun by tourists. I’ve been very fortunate to stay at a number of boutique hotels and this is right up there with them, a genuine 5 star home!
