Alessandro was a great host. He was waiting outside the house when my friends arrived. He had some ice-cream in the freezer waiting for us which was a great relief in the warm weather that day. He gave us very nice instructions to reach his place and the bus stops are just 1 minute walk from his place. He offered us a great dinner in the night. We had pasta with tomato sauce together, It was really tasty and we all enjoyed a great meal together. He gave us tips on where to go and he also provided us with a nice map of Venice. The stay was perfect in every sense of word.
