This house is amazing!!! It is in the very best location, only a short walking time for anywhere you want to go in Venice. If you want to be in the bustle of the city, you can be in St. Mark's square in about 5 minutes, the Rialto bridge in about 10 minutes, and anywhere else roughly 15 minutes away. Despite how close it is to many places, you can feel right at home and removed from all the tourists, especially after a long day. Everything about our stay was perfect: checkin went smoothly, the house was gorgeous (and looks just like the pictures), and communication with Ilaria was prompt. I highly recommend staying at Ilaria's place!
