We were visiting for the Biennale and the location couldn't have been better for that, but more importantly it is far enough away from the crazy busy tourist spots and you really feel like you're surrounded by locals in this area.
The home itself is beautifully finished with lovely details and materials everywhere and Chris was such a wonderful host making sure we had everything we needed, that check-in went ok and even sending back a gift we bought for our daughter but had left in the apartment. We will definitely stay with them again next time we visit Venice!
