We are just home from a wonderful week in this really delightful apartment. Francesca was a perfect host. Communication was excellent including directions from the airport, meeting us off the boat and explaining the neighbourhood. The apartment had everything we needed and was in the perfect location - plenty of local bars and restaurants, close to supermarkets and coffee shops. Easy to walk everywhere and very peaceful canal setting. Also very quiet at night so slept well. We would recommend the apartment as a cosy place to stay in Venice - a haven from the over crowded tourist hotspots. Thank you Francesca.
