The apartment was very clean and well kept. Caterina's daughter and husband met us at the apartment to go over everything. They had a nice list put together with recommendations of places to eat, local churches, water taxis, attractions, etc.
The apartment is off the beaten path and we liked seeing the not so traveled alleys and water ways of Venice. Some bars, restaurants and coffee shops very close by.
We thought it was family friendly with the gate at the top of the stairs and toys for the kids to play with in the morning. We enjoyed our stay and would recommend!
