Being in Venice for the very first time is like being in a real life fantasy. It's like stepping into a story book where you do nothing but shake your head in disbelief in everything that you're seeing. And to put icing on the cake, you get to spend the nights and rest breaks in such a beautifully done and very well appointed apartment. The location of the place to us is perfect - it's quiet, safe and we actually felt that we were a part of the community. It's not busy, but is close to everything you need to see and do in Venice. What really stood out the most are the interior design and overall feel of the place and the manner that Stefano (the host) and Natalia (his assistant?) handled and took care of their guests' needs and desires. Highly recommended and will definitely return when again given the chance.
