Irene's apartment is perfect. The rooms are immaculate, her decorations those of someone actually living in Venice. She patiently walked me from the train station while I snagged pictures I just had to have. She detailed restaurants to visit and attractions to see. She lives on the local side of town-- in my opinion easier to find with less people traffic, a welcomed relief from the Rialto crew and San Marco. I really can't think of anything I didn't fully enjoy.. I think my WIFI dropped one bar when I went into the bedroom..Does that count? Otherwise I could open a window and have a canal staring me in the face.. There are many reasons to find Venice memorable, but Irene's apartment actually sticks out in my my mind as among the best.
