Orsetta’s wonderful apartment is in a great location for first timers and repeat travelers to Venezia. Even though it’s minutes from Piazza San Marco, it’s extremely quiet at night. Best bakery for morning coffee is 1 minute away - Pasticceria Bonifaccio. Explore the Castello area for authentic Italian food in family run restaurants. Take a gondola ride from directly in front of the apartment but start your trip heading away from the Bridge of Sighs into the quieter canals of Venice - you’ll return by going under the bridge. I would return in a heartbeat - thank you Orsetta!
