Francesca, and her family, were great hosts. Emanuela and Francesca were kind and patient with us and explained the apartment very well. They provided everything we could ever need… including some delicious Italian pastry sticks, pasta and wine from their own vineyard for only 5 euro! It was great. They even took care of us with all the rain and minor flooding, we experienced, while we were in Venice. Francesca’s father made sure our feet stayed dry by providing water boots for us to wear so we could keep exploring Venice in the wet conditions. They are a great team and even better family.

The apartment was cozy, comfortable and makes you feel at home. It is very clean and spacious and it looks better than the pictures. The apartment is located well away from the tourist areas, but located in the center of the island and very convenient to access all of Venice. It is literally a 10 minute walk from the train station or to the Rialto Bridge… and surrounded by great restaurants, eateries and gelato stands! It is also near a great, little grocery store in case you want to buy some food and eat in.

Many thanks to Emanuela and Francesca for treating us like family and making us feel welcome in their Italian home. This is a definite place to stay at when visiting Venice.
