Sara provided detailed information on how best to get to the property and there was a nice complimentary bottle of Prosecco in the fridge on arrival. Sara and her husband were very welcoming and helpful, explaining everything there is to know about the apartment and leaving a very useful guide. The location of the apartment itself is superb, not only is it close to the busy Strada Nova (a main route which can lead you wherever you want to go), it is also a stones throw from the Ca' D'Ora and Fondamenta Nove A vaporetto stands (which provide easy access to stops along the Grand Canal and the islands of Murano, Burano and Torcello respectively). In all it was a comfortable and convenient base from which to explore Venice.
