Anna was unable to meet us herself but she sent her housekeeper who met us at the vaporetto stop (our train was late), to take us to the flat. We liked the old world charm and used the little rooftop deck every day. We enjoyed meeting her when she brought us a lighter for the gas stove. Loved being right in the middle of a great neighborhood with schoolchildren walking to school each morning and pasticceria, restaurants and a grocery store very close by. Loved our Venice stay!
