The hosts were fantastic. Great people. They even scheduled our Covid tests at the local pharmacy for us, greeted us at the door, and kept communication the whole way through.
The apartment is a beauty in an old Venetian building off the beaten path. The house feels like home. Everything you could need was there. Microwave, oven, espresso maker, washer, etc.
The location is a bit of a walk from most places but honestly, that ended up being really fun traversing the streets of Venice and honestly, being with the locals. I will be honest, this house isn’t by any tourist attractions and I wouldn’t have it any other way. It’s a Venetian neighborhood. There’s a restaurant around the corner named Osteria La Busara that we went to twice. The walk from Ponte Rialto is about 8 or so minutes. But with heavy rolling bags, can end up being about 15. There’s really no way around that is easy if you’re carrying heavy things. So this is no different.
Don’t pass up the opportunity to stay here. Was truly a highlight of our trip.
