Francesca's apartment is a great place to stay in Venice. It is just a short walk from the railway station, in a very nice neighbourhood near to shops, bars and a beautiful square. You can get to many of the main tourist areas within ten or fifteen minutes walking but it is also quiet and peaceful at the apartment. Francesca and her family were very kind and welcoming and did everything to make our stay enjoyable. The apartment is well-equipped and very comfortable. We wished we could have stayed longer.
