First of all, let’s talk about Andrea’s place. If you are looking for a quiet place, away from the crowds and among the Venetians, then this is your place. Very nice choice of restaurants nearby. A surprisingly large supermarket about an one minute walk away. The description online is accurate. Very clean and hip inside.
Andrea was very easy work with and his friend, Sue Ellen, was who greeted us and gave us great suggestions.
Now a little about Venice. Venice is beyond spectacular. The only caveat to that is I would not come with small children, especially if in strollers because of all the bridges you need to cross, which are basically stairs up and down. Plus with small children, it would be too stressful to watch with the crowds, the canals, and the maze like walkways.
We stayed for 2 days. Next time, we will stay at least a week. My wife, teenage children, and I all felt like we were in most fantastic dream. We would stay at Andrea’s place again.
