Ilaria’s place is BEAUTIFUL!! It’s in a perfect location! We loved staying in the older part of Venice and all the food was amazing! Unless you take the private water taxi, I would suggest packing relatively light so it’s easier to carry from the parking garage to the apartment. Our son loved the view and watching all the gondolas and boats go by! Ilaria met us in person to walk us to the apartment and give us some good information. We would love to stay here again!
