Sylvia's place is in the quiet part of Venice, away from the mass of people on the other side of the island. There is a nice little outdoor restaurant a block away and the water buses come within a five minute walk from her front door. The bedroom and dining room are very large and comfortable. The entrance to the bedroom looks out over a beautiful and green patio. If you ask her she will teach you how to make her delicious and strong Italian coffee, which she serves with warm milk. The environment around her place is quiet and full of interesting buildings and architecture.
