We have always loved Venice, but our prior visit almost killed it for us - too crowded and an indifferent hotel manager nearly ruined our stay. Well, the crowds are sure to return, but we *Loved* our stay at Roberta's apartment. Perfect location, very near Piazza San Marco and convenient to Rialto vaporetto stop (and bridge), lots of small shops and restaurants around, plus right above a small canal - super atmospheric at night. The place is much larger and nicer than the pictures show - one of the few airbnb's we've stayed at where we said "we could live here". 2 bathrooms and a jacuzzi tub - a rarity anywhere in Italy, much less Venice. Check in couldn't have been easier, with Roberta meeting us at boat stop and showing us the neighborhood. Hard to give directions in Venice (to terra firma people!) but once you get your bearings, easy to navigate around. Great kitchen, comfy beds, everything needed and more. Come, stay, and enjoy.
