5 stars simply does not cover it! Our stay in Venice was exceptional, due in no small part to the hospitality shown to us by Laura and Francesco. The apartment is fantastically stylish with all the amenities needed and more. There were so many kind and thoughtful touches by Laura and Francesco that we felt at home immediately. The apartment is located in a really amazing part of Venice - away from the crowds but still within easy walking distance of the major attractions. We walked most days to St Marks Square with our kids (9 and 6). We really couldn’t recommend a better place to stay in Venice and we can say definitively that you will not find better hosts.
