Gian's apartment is light and spacious with canal views from both the living room and one of the bedrooms. It was spotlessly clean, well equipped and tastefully and comfortably furnished. The location is good, with a supermarket nearby. Piazzale Roma, the railway station, Vaporetto stops and many of the major sights attractions are all within walking distance. Cannaregio is a nice neighbourhood, with lots of local bars and restaurants that are off the main tourist trail.
