This is a really beautiful, modern and bright apartment on the top floor of a very grand palatial building. It has everything you could wish for including beautiful views over the rooftops and canals of Venice (and fabulous lions in the main entrance hall!). It's high up so there are a lot of stairs to climb, only suitable for the fit and healthy, but well worth it if you have the stamina! The location is perfect for exploring all the different districts of Venice and in easy reach of water transport links. There are some wonderful restaurants very close by.

Irene is a lovely host. She gave very clear instructions on where to meet her and had lots of good advice and tips for the local area. We had a minor issue with the hot water not working one morning but she got back to us immediately when we called her and solved the problem for us very quickly so we were not inconvenienced.

We would recommend this apartment and would stay here again.
