Monica was very friendly and helpful. She keeps a very clean place. The canal view was lovely, with gondolas passing by several times a day. The bathroom is outside the bedroom, but Monica provides bathrobes and slippers so there are no privacy issues. It was our first time in Venice and Monica gave us many helpful suggestions for places to go and where to eat, even getting us a reservation at a wonderful place for our anniversary. She is a lovely person and her place is lovely and very well located. We definitely plan on returning when we are in Venice in the future. Thank you, Monica!
