We had a wonderful time at Giovanni's flat in Venice. It is perfectly located if you want to experience the true city & escape the crowds. Beautiful, clean & spacious - it was perfect for our family. The kids (11,14) shared a room & we had the master. Easy access to shops & restaurants & a 10 min walk to San Marco. Giovanni was an elegant host. Met us at the vaporetto stop & escorted us back. Great restaurant recommendations & a handy annotated map to help us make the most of our time. Highly recommend!
