This is an amazing and wonderful flat. The windows open directly on to a quiet canal. It is very quiet and in a beautiful part of the old city. You can enjoy being in real Venice. There is a nice square within about 5 minutes walk with cafes. The flat has everything you might need at home.
Laura is a most generous and kind host. Our plane was delayed by 3 hours so it was nearly midnight when we arrived exhausted and hungry. She insisted on getting us some food, which was very much appreciated. She also let us leave our bags on the last day. If I return to Venice, I would love to stay in this flat again. I think we were very lucky. I can't imagine a nicer place.
