We visited Venice for the carnival, me and my daughter, and we spent a week at Elisa's. Cosy apartment with a big veranda
overlooking the channel and in the middle of everywhere. San Marco square 15 min. walk, the Santa Lucia train station 15 min. as well and the Vaporetto Ca d' Oro stop 5 min. from the apartment. The supermarket in the next corner, as we had breakfast in the apartment (kitchen fully equipped) and a few good restaurants very near.
As it was my third time in Venice and I stayed in different areas every time, Canareggio area, I think, it's my best. Walking around San Marco, Rialto e.t.c. areas-always crowded and busy- it was so relaxing to come back to the apartment area and enjoy the beauty itself of the city.
As for Elisa, she was very kind and helpful. My daughter arrived first after a long journey from New York . Elisa was in touch with both of us through e-mails and text messages, gave us accurate instructions on how to meet her and she was on Vaporetto stop waiting for her. I am sorry I didn't meet her, as I arrived later coming from Athens, but we always had the feeling she was there and ready to solve any problem or answer any question.
We really had a great time in Venice and part of it was our stay at Elisa's apartment and Canareggio area. We will definitely come back to Elisa's San Felice flat!
Grazie Elisa!
