We had a great stay at Francesca’s apartment. You can’t beat the location, everything we needed was close by. The apartment was spacious and clean. My only complaint is that the mattress was very firm and I don’t mind a firm mattress normally; however, the mattress was very very firm; and it put a damper on my trip to Venice because I didn’t sleep well and was quite tired the whole time . In addition; the canal outside was very noisy beginning at 6am, as the trash boat comes every morning and there are also deliveries to the grocery store in that area as well. There’s nothing that can be done about the canal noise; however, is something to note.
