My third time staying here. As always, Lilia's apartment is the perfect home base for your stay in Venice. The location could not be better in terms of getting around, having access to major sights and Venetian nightlife (if you're maybe younger than me) and being away from the more commercial parts of Venice. The quieter nearby streets offer so many interesting local shops with beautiful , high quality and unique offerings, much created by local artisans. I also appreciate the spaciousness of the apartment, which helps provide space and privacy for guests. The only downside is that the balconies and views are so beautiful, it makes it difficult to leave the apartment sometimes, especially when you have a nice bottle of wine and some snacks from the nearby grocery store :-D Can't wait until my next visit!!
