We loved staying with Francesa. We was a warm and friendly Italian host who was very professional in her approach to people staying with her. Upon arrival she offered us drinks and then proceeded to give us information on the city. She was always available for any questions that we had. She also provided a nice breakfast for us in the garden which was also a treat. The room itself was spacious and had a fantastic view over one of the canals in venice. Although not on the main Island we enjoyed being a bit off the beaten path. I would highly recommend to stay here
