We had a wonderful stay at Maria's home; against the canal where boats slowed down to pass and a square with just enough energy to be quaint and super easy to grab a spritz and some dinner, but not overbearing and loud, even during peak hours.
Those small sounds were soothing as we went to sleep each night reminding us we are in a magical place.
The location is really perfect, blocking the energetic tourists' noise by being just far enough away to not being overbearing and close enough to walk in any direction.
Maria recommended us many restaurants and pro tips to navigate the city keeping our stay light-hearted and easy while still having many many opportunities to get lost in the city.
If you are looking for a place of relaxation and to refresh your mind this is the place to be. Highly recommended!
