A great place and great host! We had a fantastic trip in Venice in this apartment. Francesca totally helpful and friendly in booking and check in and check out - wonderful. Apartment was clean, airy, comfortable and perfect for us both. We especially liked how 'local' it felt - so much quieter than st marks square area, lovely places for breakfast, drinks, dinner on the actual canal the main bedroom looks out on. We would love to stay in the apartment again and totally recommend it to others. Venice is wonderful and here you feel a bit like a local!
