We thoroughly enjoyed our time in Venice. We stayed for just one evening and a whole day, but wish we had more time.

Francesca's apartment is in a great location. You are a few minutes from San Marco square, the Rialto bridge, and a vaparetto stop. We enjoyed getting lost in the many alley ways around the apartment all the time feeling safe and having little difficulty getting back to the apartment.

The apartment was clean and well provisioned. The linens were clean. There were plenty of dishes and appliances. We had two adults and three kids (ages 15, 13 and 10). We could have slept two more and been comfortable. There is only one bathroom, but it worked for us. There is no large room for all to gather, but we found that we spent most of our time in Venice out and about, so it was not an issue.

Francesca was welcoming and helpful in pointing out sites and providing advice on how to travel on to our next stop. She met us at the vaparetto stop and lead us to the apartment.

We would definitely recommend staying with Francesca.
