Francesca gave great directions to find the house and was waiting for us at the water taxi stop. She provided wonderful suggestions for getting around Venice including a map. The apartment was exactly what we expected. It was neat and clean and ready for us when we arrived. The location perfect for us - quiet side street but close to squares for shopping and dinners. Francesca's restaurant recommendations were spot on! We loved our Venice apartment, and had a fantastic time in the city! Thank you Francesca for being such a wonderful hostess!!
