Federico's apartment is in a quiet location, right on a small canal and just a few steps from a nice piazza with restaurants and a supermarket. Everything we wanted to see and do in Venice was within easy walking distance or accessible by water transport. The apartment was comfortable for our family of four, including two teenagers. Federico was a friendly and communicative host, and his friend Alina waited in the cold to meet us off our train and show us the way to the apartment.
