We stayed at Mario's apartment for one night during our short Venice stay. Mario was very helpful with letting us know how to get to the apartment and met us at the vaporetto terminal to walk us the rest of the way. He was very friendly and welcoming showing us his apartment which also included breakfast. The place itself was lovely , good sized rooms and great bathroom and kitchen. When you look out of the kitchen window you can see straight onto the canal. The next day he let us store our suitcases there until our train came around four, he was happy to meet us there at three to pick them up. When we got there he was waiting and offered us some of his own wine while we had a chat. Such a lovely apartment and Venice experience. We would definitely recommend Mario's apartment, it's only a pity we couldn't stay longer !
