Alessandra and Carlotta are wonderful hosts who made us feel welcome and responded promptly to every inquiry. The apartment is well-equipped and perfectly situated on the Giudecca -- away from crowds, but close to all necessities (two grocery stores, many good restaurants, a post office, ATM, and two vaporetto stops (Redentore and Palanca) for easy access to San Marco, Zattere, Piazzale Roma, and the Ferrovia (Santa Lucia). Highly recommended.
