Rosella's apartment is in the wonderful area of Canaregio. Quiet, away from the crowds, a lovely local area. About 15-20 minute scenic walk (if you don't get lost) to San Marco's square. You can catch the vaporetto just near the apartment. There are cafes and a supermarket near by. The apartment was beautifully presented and sparkling clean. Rossella greeted us, showed us around the apartment, even presented us with gifts. There were ample provisions for us in the kitchen. Highly recommend Rossella's apartment. It was lovely to come back to after sightseeing.
