Ca' Barbaro was better than I anticipated! I wasn't sure if there would be enough space for our 2 families of 7 people, but having 2 floors, outdoor space, a large living room and 2 bathrooms made it roomy and comfortable. The house itself is a beautiful old Venice home, with an inner courtyard, and the apartment has cool tile floors and beautiful large windows with a view over a canal. This is not a "luxury" space, but everything was clean, comfortable, and in working order. Plus, the location is fantastic, right on a quiet square and easy to get to all parts of the city. It was very warm, and each bedroom has a fan, and you need to leave the windows open at night. I was worried about mosquitos but we weren't bothered by any. I highly recommend this apartment for a large family or groups of friends!
