This apartment was super special and a perfect, secluded, peaceful base for exploring Venice.. super close to all the attractions but in the beautiful and far more residential and less touristy Cannaregio. The apartment itself is amazing and would be hard to match. Private garden, next to beautiful old church. Super comfortable and quiet / cool / peaceful. The hosts were very attentive and helpful. We were very grateful for early check in, and help getting from the pier. We loved Venice. We almost skipped it due to reports that it was unpleasantly touristy and over crowded... not the case! It's a magical place, not to be missed. Especially with this apartment as a base. Overall, five stars.
