Location! Comfort! Beauty!
Daniela and Bruno’s apartment was the perfect place for our stay in Venice, checking all the boxes. It is in an ideal quiet location but with good restaurants nearby. The star of this apartment is the huge ground floor window, overlooking the canal. The apartment was immaculately clean with plenty of room for us to spread out and make ourselves at home. It was stocked with everything we needed, including coffee, drinks, snacks, and rubber boots! Daniela greeted us and generously showed us around, making sure we were ready to relax and enjoy our adventure in this passionate city. Both Daniela and her son Bruno were great communicators both before, during, and after our stay.
Some practical details:
There are 2 full bathrooms, both with showers (no tub.).
There is a washing machine and 2 drying racks.
The bedroom is upstairs.
Air conditioners provided ideal temperature comfort and repels the occasional flying bug which can be common in Venice.
The bed upstairs is 2 twins connected together on one platform, so the size is more like a queen or perhaps a king. While some Americans may feel the bed is not as cushy as they are used to, I found the firm spring mattress to be very supportive for my bad back.
With a sleeper sofa downstairs, it’s also perfect for families.
I would return to this Airbnb in a heartbeat!
Thank you Daniela and Bruno!

DIRECTIONS:
From the Santa Lucia train station, take the 4.2 water bus. The closest water bus station is Madonna del ORTO.
It’s then a short delightful winding walk through the neighborhood to the apartment:
through the small courtyard, left at the first canal, past the church, over the bridge, through the plaza, left at the coke stand, and all the way down along the canal until you must turn left into the narrow passageway. Follow this path until it dead ends at a garden gate on your left and the canel. You are now at your home in Venice!
You can also arrange for Daniela or Bruno to escort you so you don’t get lost.
