Awesome spacious place on a canal with gondolas going past the living room windows. Around the corner from Rialto bridge and short walk to St. Marks. Francesca is the most thoughtful host who goes above and beyond to make sure you have a great stay. She got things for the kids (they love their presents) and had bread, jam, cookies, milk, tea, water all ready for us when we checked in. Best host we've ever had. Thanks!
