I cannot praise this place enough- Giovanna’s home was just perfect for our stay in Venice!
The place has been beautifully renovated and is immaculately clean, with plenty of light from many windows and lots of space. It is located in a quieter part of the city, which was really nice, but was still just a 10 minute walk by the water to St. Mark’s Square. There are plenty of small restaurants in the immediate area as well as a small grocery store, so everything you might need is easily accessible. The flat itself was well-equipped with USB charging ports, extra iPhone/micro USB cables, a coffee-maker, some light breakfast foods and anything you might need/ item your may have forgotten upon your arrival.
Giovanna and her father-in-law Danilo were both wonderful hosts who were quick to answer any questions we had, and the house manual is very well written with directions to stores and descriptions of restaurants.
If you stay in this lovely flat, make sure to take Danilo up on his offer of a walking tour of Venice! He is an ex-gondolier with great knowledge of the city’s history and he will show you parts of Venice that major tour companies miss. It is 100% worth it!
All in all, we loved our stay in Giovanna’s home and when we return we will definitely look to stay there again!
Thank you Giovanna and Danilo!
