Don't miss the opportunity to stay here. And, I say that because it truly was an opportunity! AMAZING! The pictures don't do it justice. This is like staying in a museum. My kids were enamored for sure. The kitchen was great, washer worked well, pool table provided entertainment and Patrizia provided water, snacks and some staples on arrival which was really nice. The canal was right outside the window and we could watch people going by in their gondolas. We felt like king's men staying here. The only drawbacks were that the wi-fi was not reliable and with the heat in early August, the night was hot, but the rest of the day was perfectly pleasant. I would highly recommend trying a stay here. Patrizia was easy to deal with, responded right away with questions, and check in and check out was super easy. There is a bakery about a 2 minute walk, restaurants less than 5 minute walk and a grocery also about 2 minutes away.
