We cannot rave about Francesco’s place enough! Very centrally located and so easy to get to from the water taxi. Francesco met us on arrival at the dock of the water taxi and was so kind and helpful - he even carried my very heavy suitcase up the flights of stairs which I greatly appreciated. The apartment was spotless and inviting and felt very safe and secure. The area where the apartment is located is lively and close to many great restaurants and bars. We hope to be back to Venice to stay again soon!
