I have just come back from a wonderful 4 days of solo exploring in Venice. I choose this apartment for its location and the fact it looked styled to my taste. The Cannaregio neighbourhood has a cooler vibe than the more central area and is easier to get to from the airport - 20 minutes on the bus and then a 10 minute walk. Communication with Dimitri and Valentina was great before I arrived - they told me how to find their apartment and were there to meet me when I arrived to ensure I was settled in. The apartment looks exactly as the photos (not all of them do!) which was lovely. It was very clean and well set up with everything I needed (including a full biscuit barrel which I hadn’t realised I needed but I obviously did!). The apartment is a perfect size for a couple or 2 adults but might be a little too cosy for 4 large humans! It is on a street with the most attractive supermarket building I've ever seen as well as coffee shops and patisseries. There are some lovely places to eat in the evening without the need to walk back to the centre of town. It's a 5 minute walk to the nearest Vaporetto stop on the Grand Canal (San Marcuola) and a 15/20 minute walk to the Rialto bridge. I recommend you take the Vaporetto all the way down to the Piazza San Marco on your first day so you see all the views and get an overall sense of the place. I spent most of my time walking around exploring after that - Venice is not so vast that it's hard to cover everything. If you have the time, take a day to visit all the islands around the northern lagoon – Murano, Burano, Torcello which are stunning! An unforgettable trip made very comfortable thanks to this Airbnb.
