Guilia was the perfect host! She met us right when we arrived, and had so many wonderful suggestions for things to do and places to eat in Venice. The apartment is kind of amazing: located in a very vibrant part of the city and close to everything. It's in a former palazzo, and has so much history in it. It was like living in a very clean, bright, and roomy museum! It was warm in Venice and we were especially grateful for the very effective air conditioning at night! Highly recommended, perfect for families!
