Francesca was very good about communicating with us so that her Aunt Mara was waiting for us when we got to the apartment. She showed us how to operate all the features of the kitchen and bath and left us to enjoy the apartment. Francesca texted us each day to make sure that everything was in order.

The apartment was beautiful, spacious and clean and the area was very quiet. Everything was as advertised. It seems like this place is in a remote part of Venice, but it really was no problem. It took us only twelve minutes to walk there from the train station, three minutes to walk to restaurants and shopping, and about 20 minutes to walk to San Marco Square. AND we cannot say enough about Venice. Every turn brought another alley, bridge and canal. We walked all day and rode the Vaporettos everywhere.
