This is our return trip to Venice, this time with children. Valeria's apartment beautifully combines the character of the old with the comfort and convenience of the new. Her flair for design is evident and the thoroughness and and thoughtfulness of providing so much information, food AND moka coffee as well as Daniele's great humour, adds to the charisma and X factor that is Venice. The luxury of picking up a few things, and making dinner in a very functional kitchen for hungry, tired kids whilst having a nice glass of wine was wonderful. The restaurant just four doors down was nice, too.The position of the property was great, and I would stay under the roof of these gracious hosts again without hesitation.
