We had a delightful month in this apartment, and hope to stay there again. It was comfortable and well furnished, and in an excellent location. Although the kitchen is small, it is well equipped, and we prepared most of our meals–there is good shopping nearby, including fish and vegetable markets quite close. A microwave, rare in Venetian rental apartments, was a bonus. Also very welcome were screens on the windows, which let us keep the windows open and enjoy excellent cross ventilation without mosquitos, saving the air conditioning for the really hot days (there is only one unit, but the fan provided spread the cool air wherever we needed it). Although the living room faces a busy street, with some nighttime traffic, the bedroom is on a completely silent side street, so we were never disturbed. There are excellent restaurants nearby (the one on the ground floor of the building has excellent traditional Venetian food, and we had one of our best meals ever at Estro down the street). We didn’t meet Luz, but her husband, Paolo, and a friend were there to meet us when we arrived. They were welcoming, spoke excellent English, and were knowledgeable about the area. Highly recommended.
