So glad we decided to stay in Lidia's place in Venice. After many days in Italy, it was a joy to go to the market, get fresh ingredients and cook in the apartment with the windows open, listening to the street below. The apartment was exactly as advertised and perhaps even roomier than we needed and the shower was one of the best I've had in Europe -- same for the bed! The location was perfect, allowed us to see the super touristy sites like the Rialto Bridge but without being on top of them and Lidia had a great tips and easy perfect directions for getting there. Would highly recommend! We'll be back!
