Our stay in Sandra's Costello neighborhood apartment was exceptional. Upon arrival a quick phone call helped us locate her at the busy Rialto bridge. It was a short walk from there. The fresh fruit, coffee and provisions to begin our stay was very thoughtful; especially after a long day of travel. The time Sandra spent sharing her love of Venice was invaluable and enhanced our exploration of her city. A Square around the corner had all we needed-a cafe, coffee bar, convenience and grocery store. The apartment was clean and quiet. While the 3 flights of stairs are 3 flights of stairs we would highly recommend her and her lovely apartment.
