The first thing you'll notice about Corte Pensieri is the distance from the train station - very short. This makes it a pleasure to arrive in Venice.
Cleanliness will be the next thing you notice. The apartment is perfectly clean and well-lit.
Then you will see the lovely welcome gifts waiting in the kitchen, and you will know you have chosen a good place to stay.
Everything worked well. Irene is gracious and prompt in her communications.
Corte Pensieri's only common room is the kitchen (no living room), but Venice is so beautiful that who wants to linger in the apartment?
