We enjoyed in staying at Irene’s apartment. There was a lovely park/courtyard area that one of the balconies overlooked and the other two balconies were very nice as well. Irene provided a lot of great tips of things to do in the area and also met us at the ferry stop and walked us to the apartment which was very nice. The apartment was very central and everything that we wanted to do was within walking distance. I liked that it was near to most things without being in a heavily populated area. We would recommend this apartment if you are looking for a quiet place to stay in Venice.
