We loved staying in Franco's apartment. It was a beautiful and clean home that felt very well-loved. The location is perfect- centrally located between the major tourist sites and the Biennale attractions. And REALLY close to San Zaccaria ferry stop which is very well serviced for getting around the islands.
Martino (Franco's friend in Venice) was very easy and efficient to communicate with. We had no troubles at all and found the place catered to all our needs. I would absolutely stay there again!!
