We had a most fabulous time in Venice and it wouldn't have been the same if not for our wonderful host, Stefano. He was responsive when needed, most accurate in his description of the location, helpful to knowing how to open the gates, access keys, turn on the stove and more. This place is a must see! One of only a few balconies on the rio/canal, it was picturesque as well as making it an authentic experience. It was also centrally located to anywhere we wanted to go. Venice itself was amazing, but being able to stay here was the icing on the cake. The century old decor, but updated and modern touches were perfect. Oh, and the prosecco was delicious! Thank you Stefano for sharing your beautiful home with us. We hope to be back soon!
