We had a wonderful stay at Sara´s beautiful canalside apartment in Cannaregio. Sara and Angelo were most helpful hosts, they met us at the Alilaguna stop and walked us to the apartment.
The area is very quiet and residential; the only noises came from the canal but they were mostly entertaining rather than annoying.
The apartment is very nice, with two good size bedrooms with comfortable beds. The kitchen/sitting room is not huge but it is sufficient. Everything is in good working order and clean. The kitchen has everything you need if you choose to cook at home, although there are several nice non-touristy restaurants close by. The bathroom is also well equipped with a washing machine and shower cabinet with a good shower although we did have some difficulty keeping the water temperature steady, but the water pressure is good.
All in all, we can recommend Sara’s apartment without hesitation.
