Giovanni sent me perfect directions to get from the port to his stop by water bus. He was there to meet us as we arrived and led us directly to the apartment pointing out places of interest along the way. The apartment is quite off the beaten track and genuinely in the centre of 'local' Venice which allowed us follow all sort of back-alleys while find our way around. The place was clean and neat. It has wonderful windows which can open vertically as well as horizontally! The kitchen is great and well-kitted. All in all a great experience.
