My husband and I had a lovely stay at Cristina's flat in Venice. The flat was spotlessly clean, comfortable and well located. It is close to markets, shops and cafes, but in an area not overrun by tourists. The flat lies behind locked gates and in a courtyard and is very quiet at night. You will have a 7 am church bell wake-up call, which will make sure you get a good start to your Venice day. Cristina was thoughtful to bring us coffee and some special Venetian treats to start our stay and was available for questions and suggestions for places to eat and where to go. We plan on returning to stay again in the fall.
