Nikita made us feel very welcome immediately from our check-in. He gave us some helpful guidance on places to see in the neighborhood, including restaurants and bars. The apartment itself was very lovely and comfortable, the busy sounds of the crowded streets fades away on the top floor and the sounds of church bells added a nice ambiance. The apartment is exquisitely furnished and all of the bath fixtures are quite new. Since it is in the top floor attic space I did bump my head on the exposed beams a couple of times. As a rather tall person this is something I'm used to. However, it did not feel claustrophobic in the least, the space is very open and airy. If you're looking for a beautiful and comfortable place just steps away from some of the biggest tourist attractions in Venice this is a wonderful place to stay!
