Leone's apartment Ca' Boldo is superb and exceeded our expectations, with our every need catered for. It IS as big as it looks and the terrace is delightful with beautiful views across the rooftops and down to a canal frequented by gondola. Leone communicated with us regularly and met us promptly at the ferry. The neighbourhood is quiet and removed from the crowds and the piazza at San Giocomo dall'Orio is teeming life in the afternoons. Children and families gather in the afternoon and play and chat and enjoy aperitifs until dusk. We loved our time here and would stay here again in a flash!
