Perfectly located in the heart of Venice city, 5 min walk from Santa Maria Formosa, 10-15 min walk from San Marco and Rialto Bridge, the stay in Franco's apartment was a very comfortable and enjoyable. Within 10 min walk there is a supermarket (Coop) where you can purchase nearly everything, and 5 min walk grocery and kiosk Tabacchi. During the day you can enjoy walks along the canal and occasionally hire a gondola that takes you everywhere . At night you can drink wines at bacaro, or local bar. Franco and wife are hospitable and kind family who help you locate exactly where you need to go. You can do cooking, cleaning and almost all you wish to do. You can feel like at home. Venice is kept historical and cultural city, so you must walk long, take stairs (many buildings have no lifts, including Franco's place), which is a bit inconvenient for someone used to modern way of life. The best Air B&B experience I have ever had, and this place is highly recommended for everyone.
