We very much enjoyed our stay in Venice! Francesca's apartment was beautiful, well fitted-out and in a quiet neighbourhood that was just lovely. Francesca met us on arrival to orient us with the apartment and surrounds and was very helpful throughout our stay. Only a short walk to many great restaurants and stores and around 30 minutes by foot to Piazza San Marco (everything in Venice is walking distance!). Close to public boats, also. We would definitely recommend staying here!
