Linda's place is absolutely wonderful! It's very private and clean and in a great central location. Venice is very small so you can walk from one side of the island to the other in less than 25 minutes. I do suggest bringing a pair of waterproof shoes or boots in case you have high water as we did on our last day. Overall, the apartment is perfect for a few days in Venice and it's close to many shops, restaurants and grocery stores. Linda gave us a book on suggestions for places to eat and things to do as well as tips for getting around Venice. She's a fabulous host and I would definitely reccomend her apartment to anyone who is traveling to Venice!
