We had an incredible stay in Laura's apartment. The accommodation itself was fantastic with every mod con you could wish for. It was brilliantly equipped with dishwasher and washing machine as well as a well stocked kitchen. The bathroom was great and the bed very comfy. The location was brilliant and the directions were great. It is far enough away from the main crowds to have a local feel and offer some very reasonable restaurants but also 5 minute walk to the Rialto Bridge for easy access to the main attractions.
As for Laura, we could not have wished for a more accommodating host. She was friendly and always available. She has some great recommendations as well as a vast array of maps and guides to help. The restaurants she suggested were great and she couldn't have been more helpful.
If we return to Venice, which is more than likely, we would only look to stay here
