This is advertised as a 6 bed place (as in 3 beds that can sleep 6 people in total). There were only 2 of us and so this was fine for us. What isnt mentioned is that the bathroom is only accessible through the bedroom and the other 2 beds are sofa beds in the main living area. Pricing wise this is excellent for Venice. The kitchen is well equipped and the place was very clean.

Neighborhood / Location: It's in the heart of San Polo district, next to Frari church. The neighborhood has tourists during the day and is quiet during late evenings and night. Being in the center of Venice, most of the attractions are walkable. There's a Grom gelato shop few steps away and some great breakfast options also.

Apartment: It's a spacious apartment with living, dining, kitchen and bedroom. You'll love it as soon as you see it! Wifi works great!

Hosts: Davide is a wonderful host and a very warm person. It was so thoughtful of him to get food and baby stuff for us before we arrived. Our checkin process was really smooth, even though we arrived late in the evening. He reached within minutes of our calling. His inputs on what to explore in Venice were very helpful.

Davide has been very meticulous in ensuring that guests have all that they may need during the stay (e.g. there was a needle and thread box also!).

Davide has a great collection of books about Venice. We used few of them during our trip.

The rooms were comfortable and clean and in a great place to see the city. Great food and shopping nearby. Highly recommend this apartment.

Our family of five found the apartment to be very cozy. The location was amazing, very close to all the main areas of Venice. Davide was very helpful in the tips and tricks to getting around Venice and had a lot of advice making our stay very easy. We really enjoyed Venice and would love to come back and visit in the future. Thanks again Davide.

Why you should stay here:
1. This ground floor flat is centrally located in Venice, a hub almost equidistant from all the important sites.
2. Davide is extremely accommodating. He's a local who has lived in Venice all his life. He can tell you about the latest in Venice local news, as well as the best places to eat and drink. He met us at the flat promptly, and provided us with a thorough tour of the flat. Listen carefully to the part about trash/garbage/compost. Waste collection in Venice is quite complicated.
3. Once you are in, it's like using an Air BnB in the states. You are independent and on your own. They won't change your towels or make your beds every day. Especially great for those who like privacy and tend to be more independent. Though Davide only lives a five-minute walk away. So if you need anything or something comes up, he's nearby.
4. Support local businesses! While large hotel chains attract those on package tours, the more adventurous types should go with Ca Frari. You get a sense of what it would be like to live here.
5. This roomy flat easily fit my group of three. I can see a family of four staying here, a group of friends on a holiday, and even a couple on a honeymoon. Ca Frari is great for any party.
6. Near less touristy (though still touristy) neighborhood eateries and shops. If you are a big fan of Grom gelato, it is a mere 10 steps away!

This apartment was as described in the on-line site. It was within easy walking distance (with 1 piece of luggage per person) of the train station; and also within walking distance of so many of Venice's main attractions. A quiet get-away from the hustle and bustle of Venice, it was clean, comfortable, and relaxing to be in when not exploring all Venice has to offer. With just the two of us, we each had our own sitting area to catch up on emails (has Wifi) and read our books. AND we really appreciated that the owner stocked the cozy kitchen with coffee and croissants! He also showed us how to make the coffee with the Italian coffee pot, and provided a map and other tourist information for Venice. He also came to our rescue when we managed to lock ourselves out of the apartment the first night we were there. The only reason we are not rating this "excellent" is that the bathroom shower is very small, which we found to be the case at most of the places we stayed during our travels through Italy. As the title of our review says, we will stay here again if our travels should take us back to Venice.
