What a wonderful place! if you want a place for four or six people (we had six) i would recommend stop looking at any others and stay here. The location is perfect, right in the heart of Venice but out of the way of the crowds. We were able to walk everywhere we wanted and did not have to worry about catching the busy water buses. Francesca mums lives next door, and is the best host! She does not speak any English, but she gave us recommendations and even booked us into two great restaurants that were exactly what we were looking for. One called Ruffalo 5 minutes away in the square nearby, that has the seats by the canal and another called Madonna, which is just superb. These are noted in the information book within the house. The house was well equipped for cooking, and very clean. So pleased we booked it and will book again if ever in Venice.
