Chiara’s apartment was the perfect Venetian getaway. The space itself was clean, spacious (for two) and well appointed. And the location was perfect - just close enough to the main sights to make for pleasant walks, but not so close as to be inundated by the fronts of tourists. It was an easy walk from several vaporetto stops (important, as one must carry one’s luggage by foot when arriving and departing anywhere in Venice) and had tons of great shopping and restaurants nearby. And speaking of which, chiara sent us a long list of excellent dining recommendations as well to take out much of the guesswork. Communication was thorough and prompt and we would definitely recommend her flat to anyone looking for a nice cozy place to stay in Venice.
