Adriano and Barbara were incredible hosts. They were on holiday, but had Adriano's sister Cristina meet us and show us around the apartment.

The apartment is very modern, new, and spacious for a Venice apartment. The bathroom was surprisingly large and very clean. The location in Cannaregio was great because it was slightly out of the way of the main tourist drag (quieter and less overwhelming), but close enough to walk to San Marco and the Rialto. Plus there are a few great restaurants and bars just steps from the apartment, including a cute crepe place.

The close proximity to the train station is a plus. Thank you Adriano and Barbara!
