We really enjoyed our stay in Alice’s apartment, liked the location as it was away from the main hustle and bustle of the city. The space was spacious, clean and just lovely with great views out the windows (persimmon tree views? Yes please!) The apartment is on the second floor (up one set of stairs) and the main bedroom is also up a narrow set of stairs, if you have mobility issues this might be a problem. The apartment was well equipped but we did miss having a espresso/coffee machine. The trash collection was a bit confusing but explained after check-in and communication was a little off as the check-in host doesn’t speak much English at all, so there might be some things lost in translation, but you can message Alice and she can clarify things… the neighborhood was nice very close to the main lagoon and within a 15 minute walk from the grand canal. For good eats nearby I recommend the little coffee shop Cafe Pupa and for inexpensive but very authentic and tasty Italian food you can’t go wrong with Bar Royale. Thanks for hosting us Alice!
