We stayed in 3 Airbnbs over a week in Venice, and this was our favorite. The neighborhood is authentic and active, which rewards visitors looking to be off the high-traffic tourist corridors. There is great dining literally within 100 m of the apartment at two different sports. As a stand-alone home, nestled over a canal, next to a bridge, this apartment feels like staying in your own private home. There is a cozy shower and a washing machine. The kitchen is great for fast meals. The Murphy bed is incredibly comfortable and the sleeping loft is fun! We also loved the built in desk for writing and water coloring in the afternoons. Highly recommend!
