This palazzo is a gracious beauty, a true palazzo in every sense. We were surprised by the grand scale, never expecting anything so spacious in our wildest dreams, the photos don't depict the sheer size. The canal & street directly below the living room windows is one of the prettiest you will see in Venezia and we loved the feel of the neighbourhood, quiet and yet lively, a contradiction in terms. Away from the more touristic areas & more of a local flavour with university students and local residents. Particularly close to the train station, yet far enough away. Communication with Michele was prompt & kind and we thank him for his warm hospitality. This was the true Venetian experience.
