Venice was our third city to visit during our trip to Italy from the USA...Rome, Florence, Venice and Milan. Venice was my favorite! Much of this had to do with our accommodations! We loved the apartment! It was so cosy and comfortable! We were really tired from traveling from Florence with luggage and backpacks (taxi, train and then vaporetto).
Mauricio met us at the stop in Biennale and walked us to the apartment. It was bit of a
distance but Mauricio helped us with our bags. What a wonderful surprise to see where we were going to stay for four nights. He explained everything to us and we felt right at home immediately.
Everything we needed for the next morning was in the kitchen which saved us finding a grocery store until the next day. Also, the apartment was well supplied with everything we needed for our stay...plenty of paper towels, trash bags, toilet paper, linens, etc. The bedding and linens were really nice and so clean!
It was so peaceful and quiet at Ca' Nostra. It was a nice change to be away from all the noise and tourists. On one of our days in there we accidentally ran into Mauricio and Paola...a nice surprise! We didn't get to meet Riccardo but he was so good responding to all my questions so quickly! Such nice people! They have had this apartment for several generations and you get the feel that the apartment is very dear to them. What a very special family! I will miss you all and Venice too! Joan
