Andrea is a charming and thoughtful host. He met us, as promised, at the water bus stop. He walked us through the neighborhood, offering good suggestions. The place is amazing. The experience was positive. This was one of the best places we have stayed, courtesy of Airbnb. Large apartment, with many windows, each overlooking a different part of the city. We had great views of the canals! The building was quite; a rarity in Venice! The beds were very comfortable. The bathroom, a modern one with a large window, comes with a Jacuzzi. All the rooms have exposed beams. We fell in love with the apartment. Andrea was quick to respond. He educated us, patiently, on the trash issue. As a result we had no problem in terms of trash/recycling (a major issue in Venice) during our stay. We liked his recommendations! In particular, a nearby store, by the second bridge, if you were to turn right after leaving the property, where you can drink "house wines," and have small portion heavenly what we'd call appetizers, in the U.S., for one euro a glass! All customers were local people, stopping for their quick drinks! They sold coffee, too! All in all, we highly recommend this apartment. Thank you Andrea, for making our vacation in Venice such a memorable one! We already miss the evening/all day Aperol Spritzes! Chin-chin!
