Loved staying at the "Live Venice as a real Venetian". We loved looking down and seeing the canal, seeing the gondola's preparing in the morning. The bed was sooo comfortable, the apartment was sparkling and the apartment was very quiet. We really felt like we were home. The house is spacious. While there are quite a few stairs to go up it was easy. We were celebrating our anniversary ad Giovanna was kind to leave a bottle of wine for us (most appreciated). The location is easy to find because the directions were PERFECT. We had some terrific dinners close by which was perfect after a long day.
