We just finished a 3 week stay at Diane's place and I only have good things to say both about Diane as a host and our stay. The apartment offers everything you'll need with an old Venice charm - if you're looking for a sleek white box this isn't for you. The back yard was so much bigger than expected and totally private with great views - our dogs loved hanging out there. The location is also fantastic, right next to Rose and Main avenues. Diane was understanding of our situation (house hunting) and flexible with our dates, which we really appreciated. Thank you Diane!
