This apartment is in a tranquil and safe part of Venice, even though it’s an easy walk from the train station and there is everything you could need within about 100m walk - a supermarket, restaurants, an excellent bakery... our young girls spent hours sitting on the windowsills reading their books and watching the gondolas pass by. Our hostess gave us a wonderfully warm welcome with a thorough introduction to both the apartment and Venice, with some excellent recommendations for places to visit and at which to eat. The bedrooms are reasonably spacious, the beds very firm. The living space isn’t very large but who wants to spend time inside an apartment when there’s a wonderful square to enjoy just across the nearest bridge?
