This apartment was so lovely, right near cafes and a canal with gondolas, in a quiet part of Venice without the noise of the tourists. The apartment has so much character and served all our needs, and Pietro and his wonderful wife helped us with directions and advice on the city which was invaluable. We loved our stay here! We even got lost finding it (because the streets of Venice are so unique!) and Pietro's wife met us on a nearby bridge and escorted us, she was so very helpful.
