Leone's apartment is PERFECTO!! Stunning home in the quieter part of town. Our host gave us great directions for our arrival and everything went smoothly. The apartment was stocked with items already for us to enjoy: snacks, juices, and fruit. After a long day of traveling, we appreciated this thoughtful gesture. Leone's wife, Manuela, was very helpful in giving us directions to the grocery store and bus station. The apartment is not far from the bus station or train station. We enjoyed watching the gondolas go by down below the terrace and listening to the "pong" of tennis balls from time to time as the only clay court in Venice is nearby. This apartment is a wonderful retreat in a very busy city. Grazie!!
