If you want to feel like staying with your family members, this is the place to go. We arrived on the day of Regatta, where the Grand Canal was shut down for the event. Paola's sister, Cinzia, along with her son & her mother, came all the way to the railroad station to pick us up & walked us to the flat.

We knew the location of the flat was pretty central but we didn't even realize that the flat was literally a right turn away from the historical Rialto Bridge. Waterbus can take you to anywhere in Venice if you want to see Venice from the Canal. It's also an easy walk to San Marco's Square should you choose to travel on foot.

The flat was very spacious with separate bedroom, living room & kitchen filled with antique furniture. It was very quiet & yet very convenient. We went back to the flat frequently to refresh, drop off stuff before embarking on new adventures. All the linens were clean (smells fresh, too). Bathroom was stocked, even with shower gel & hand soap. It's really like coming home.

We spent too wonderful nights at the flat. It's a pity that we couldn't stay any longer, but we would definitely come back again next time when we're in Venice!
