We feel we got the best out of Venice by staying at this magic place. It allowed us to escape the tourist hordes and had civilised breakfasts and civilised candlelight dinners instead of going to overcrowded restaurants and over expensive coffee bars. We found a coffee roasting place, Torrefazione Cannaregio, where we got our coffee and the Rialto market had all I needed to cook proper Italian food.
The apartment has wonderful books on Venice which go a lot deeper than the usual tourist guides. The place is full of art and wonder and if it had not been for the cruise ships passing by San Marco we would have managed to eclipse the 21st century almost entirely.
Thank you for letting us experience your home. We loved it.
