One word...Wow!!! We loved this place and Chiara went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed. Secondly, the home was immaculate! Sooooo clean! I never walk without shoes except in my own home. But I felt completely comfortable doing so in Chiara's home. Her place is located perfectly .... close enough to restaurants and markets yet far enough to make you feel as though you are a local. The apartment faces a canal which is so peaceful and romantic and the neighborhood is so peaceful at night. We never felt unsafe anywhere in Venice but especially in this neighborhood. Venice has our heart and we will most definitely be back and stay with Chiara. Highly recommend!!
