This place made our stay in Venice even more magical. The historic building, the furniture, the style in the house are really exquisite. Monica provided us with great instructions on how to find the address. It is located a stone's throw from most touristic areas of Venice you wouldn't want to miss, but it is nested in a very residential neighbourhood far away from the crowds. There are many lovely cafes, shops and osterias and trattorias you can enjoy great food for reasonable prices. We loved strolling through the narrow alleys around the house and discover a more genuine Venice beyond tourist guide books especially during the Carnevale. We highly recommend Monica's apartment.
