The place is so perfect. The views of the canal are beautiful, the space very comfortable and the location magical. It is the quiet Venice that I love. Yet, you are also conveniently just around the corner from shopping and restaurants (but you can't hear the street noise at all). If you want to enjoy Venice as if you live there and as if there are no tourists, this is such the perfect place. My daughter and I loved it very much. And, the hosts were wonderful and very responsive.
