This was our first time in Venice and we couldn't work out how to get to Ida's apartment as the dock at San Stae was being upgraded. Ida happily and thankfully met us at the train station and guided us back through what we thought to be a maze. We were so happy with the apartment. It is historic and original on the outside and modern and well equipped on the inside. We loved everything about it. A beautiful comfy bed, shower with hot water, lovely quiet and secure of a night yet just a stroll to a beaut little inexpensive bar and lovely restaurants, transport and St Marks. I cannot think of anything I would change to make our time here better. Ida has thought of everything.
