If you are thinking about staying here, do it...this is a beautiful and very tastefully styled apartment in the most perfect location that you can imagine. It is easy to get to, close to everything you need but just off the beaten path. Antonina is a kind and caring host who is committed to generous hospitality. If anything, the location and apartment are nicer than you might imagine...having boats and gondolas passing by in the canal outside the door is just one of the pleasant surprises..and the Gugenheim is just around the corner. This is one of the nicest surprises ever and I have traveled constantly for over 45 years. Book it if it's available.
