This is Venice at its best. A beautiful town house in a small street, some 80 meters straight down from the water bus stop San Samuele (line 2 from the Station or San Marco). The house was easy to find even though it is hidden behind the large square of San Stefano (3 min walk through tiny alleyways over little canals). We received the keys as agreed and moved in. The house is well equipped, beautifully furnished, over 3 floors with a great roof terrace and views over the neighborhood. The two bedrooms and the two living rooms are nicely decorated, the kitchen was perfectly equipped and stocked with coffee, fruit, snacks, tea, and a welcome drink. The neighborhood is very quiet and peaceful. There is a little shop at the end of the road and many restaurants on the square. The hosts were excellent. Baur is a star below in comparison.
