Brought my brother and sister on their first trip to Europe. Ombra's place in Venice was our first stop, and wow!! Her home is spectacular. Not far from all the sights of Venice, but in a residential neighborhood that ensures your stay is nice and quiet. Neighbor across the hall/stairs is super nice and actually checked us in as Ombra was unavailable when we got to Venice. He gave us some great restaurant recommendations, and we loved it!
The apartment itself is at the top of a couple flights of stairs, which was ideal for us, as it provides some beautifully breathtaking views, especially in the early mornings when the sun is coming up!
Cannot recommend highly enough!! Will definitely be staying at Ombra's place again when I return!
