Giovanna's place was the best one we stayed in during our trip to Italy! Very clean and easily accessible. Giovanna is also very helpful with suggestions on restaurants to try and places to visit- ensuring you avoid all the tourist traps! The home is about a 10 min walk away from St Marks Square. Great location as it's private but also not too far away from main attractions. The street is beautiful with some great restaurants along it. If you're staying in Venice- make sure you stay at Giovanna's :)
