This is a very spacious and clean apartment with lots of character in an old palace. The views over Venice and the nearby canal are good and the morning church bells add to the atmosphere. Irene is an excellent host with lots of local knowledge and she responds very quickly to communications. Check in and check out were easy. We loved staying in this part of Venice. It's very picturesque and not too busy with some good local shops. The restaurant Irene runs with her husband is great too!
