Nico's flat in a palazzo that dates back to the 1600's, was wonderful! My favourite part was the two small balconies overlooking a quaint canal. We loved to sit out there and watch gondoliers go by during a beautiful sunset while hearing Opera form the opposite palazzo. Tall beamed ceilings, Venetian terrazzo floors,comfy bed and nice kitchen. So close to San Marco! A true Venetian experience at a reasonable price.
