Maurizio's & Francesca's place is fantastic. It's not just the comfort, the beautiful decor, and the spotlessness of the place that makes it comfortable. There are 3 windows that open onto one of the small canals, so you can see the gondolas go past and hear the music/serenading on the ones that have it. The apartment has a lot of history, is about a minute's walk from Giglio boat stop, and within easy walking distance to restaurants, shops, and lots of sights. I don't think I could have hoped for a better place to stay in such a special city.
