The location was amazing, right on the Grand Canal! This was our first time to Venice so we didn’t really know what to expect and staying right on the Grand Canal in the middle of the city made us feel like we were experiencing the real Venice even when we were just sitting in the apartment drinking wine. There was plenty of room for our party of 5 and everything we needed was in walking distance. Venice is an amazing city and Francesca’s apartment is the perfect place to experience it.
