We had a great time at Francesca’s apt. It is a very unique apartment and a fun stay. It is about a ten to 15 min walk to most visitor attractions but it is nice to stay in a quieter part of the city. We fell in love with Venice and are trying to plan our next stay. One bit of advice; when opening the front door to the apt. There is a step down right at the door. The hall tends to be dark, so you might not see it.
