Stefania is a very welcoming and pleasant host, and looked after us very well. The apartment is beautifully located on the bank of the Guidecca canal beside the Palanca vaporetto stop, with great views over Venice. Getting to St Mark's Square requires a short vaporetto ride across the canal but this is compensated by the area which is really pleasant and much calmer than central Venice. There are restaurants and cafes locally, with a supermarket just 5 minutes walk from the apartment.
