Can anyone give us their report on the apartment in Venice "La Rosa di Venezia"??

Have you searched this forum for that name? I'm sure I've seen it recommended a couple of times in threads.

Franco has written about this apartment......this is the where he usually stays in Venice.

Maybe if you do a Fodors search using his name?

The apartment looks and sounds lovely. They say it is for 2 or 3 people. From those who have stayed there I would appreciate a comment on its suitability for 3 people. Thanks.

Peteralan - I'd say it depends on the three persons. I think it's ideal for two, but I've been there once with a party of two others, and it was still comfortable. Maybe best for a couple with a child, but we were three adults, and it was fine. We knew each other very well, though; with a less familiar third person, I would perhaps prefer going elsewhere.

Franco,

Since you're in the neighborhood (so to speak), let me take this opportunity to thank you for sharing your love of La Rosa di Venezia on this board. Based on your report, we have booked six nights there in mid-October. And we are *very* excited! As I continue my fanatical research and planning, I may ask you some specific questions as time goes by. But for now, again, many thanks!

kagoo, thank YOU for your nice lines. I trust you'll love it, it's really a dream place, at least for me.

I just received this e-mail, if anyone's considering La Rosa Di Venezia this May. I assume it's for real:

Dear former guests, dear prospective visitors,

I know for sure that many of you would love to visit Venice in May (one of the most beautiful seasons, also in my opinion)... there is no other month for which we have to disappoint so many inquirers every year! That's why I thought I must let you know of this unexpected opportunity: due to TWO consecutive cancellations, we have availability for nine nights from May 8th to 17th - that makes one long or two to three short visits! Normally, such an opportunity is unimaginable, because when we have an unexpected vacancy like this in May, my wife and I go ourselves - we love Venice in May. This year, however, we can't, unfortunately - we've already booked our holiday elsewhere for that period... So hopefully, this will make one or more of you happy!

Hoping that you're all well, and with best regards
Robert Schlesinger
