We spent 3 nights staying at Claudia's apartment and were blown away by how tastefully decorated it was, and how much space there was in the apartment. It was great to have the lounge area and the bed was very comfortable with great lighting throughout. The apartment is 2 minutes walk from a highstreet with a small supermarket and some nice bars and restaurants. It was approximately 15-20 minutes walk to St Mark's square (pretty much the centre of the island), and was surrounded by beautiful streets and canals. We were welcomed off the ferry by Claudia's contact and given lots of info about the surrounding area. Venice exceeded our expectations, and we will be visiting again in the not too distant future. Were also given the option to stay later than the check out time when we knew there wasn't anyone coming into the apartment the day of our departure which was really helpful due to our late flight. Thank you Claudia!
