Ema’s house is beautiful and cozy, and is exactly what I would have pictured a real historic Venice house to look like. It’s also in a perfect location, minutes from the Arsenale vaporetto stop, and only slightly further from San Marco. The neighborhood is close enough to the main sights, but far enough away that you feel some separation from the waves of tourists.
Also, Ema was a wonderful host. We had the chance to meet her in person at both check-in and check-out, and she was so welcoming and hospitable. Her recommendations for neighborhood shops, cafes, etc. were all spot-on, and she was very responsive when we sent her questions.
We would love to come back someday, and would recommend the house to anyone.
