We had a remarkable stay in Venice, and staying at Ca del Cinema certainly contributed to it! Francesca and her husband were very kind and welcoming hosts. We arrived a bit late because we took the wrong train and Francesca was very understanding. The home is gorgeous and immaculate--it's clean, open, airy and accurately depicted in the photos. The layout is perfect giving you all the privacy of your own "suite," but the accessibility of the shared common areas when you need it. The rooms (bedroom and bathroom) are HUGE, beautifully decorated and very clean. It was very warm weather during our stay and the AC worked extremely well. Francesca also makes an amazing breakfast in the morning. She was very helpful providing us with a map of the city and gave clear directions about arrival to her home (in a city where directions are nearly impossible to navigate!). She helped us utilize the vaporetto and water transportation well. It's in a more secluded area off the main tourist drag, but that is why we loved it (nothing in Venice is too far), and we always felt safe. Venice is magical, and Ca del Cinema was a great addition to our experience!
