We had a lovely stay at Liana’s apartment. Even though we spoke English and she spoke Italian, she was able to show us everything we needed to know and how to operate the windows and appliances. It was a very nice surprise that she left us an assortment of snacks in the kitchen - very welcome after our long flights from the US. It was very quiet in the area around the apartment and we rarely heard neighbors. If you are coming to Venice via water taxi, ask them to drop you off at Novecento Hotel, it is very near the apartment and you won’t have to carry your luggage up and down any bridges. We absolutely loved the gelato shop around the corner - in Campo San Maurizio at San Marco 2606. We would absolutely stay here again, thank you!
