I will not ever return to Venice unless I can get one of Maria's flats. Seriously. It is my Venice home now. The location, apartment, the views all A+.
Maria is the greatest. Having been to Venice enough times to consider myself an expert, she provided many places in the Dorsoduro I had not thought about and the ones we visited were indeed excellent.
It is steps from the Vaporetto, a few more steps from the Academia Bridge yet is in a quiet yet convenient corner of Venezia.
I cannot say enough good things about this place.
