I stayed in this apartment for 3 nights with my husband and 2 children. The apartment was even better in person than in the pictures! We loved the charm of the decorations and it was very clean with everything you could need. It opened up right on to the canal with nice views. Paolo and Riccardo are wonderful hosts. They met us at the water bus and carried our bags to the apartment. The left us with plenty of breakfast food and snacks and lots of candy :) They gave us a map and told us of their favorite local restaurant. It was nice to eat at a local place that wasn't as touristy as some closer to tourist action. The apartment is well located to reach the main sites within a short walk. We liked that the apartment was in a quieter alley. We slept very well each night after our long days of sight seeing. If (hopefully when) we visit Venice again, we would definitely stay here again. It was perfect!
