Staying at Ilaria's place was magical. She is such a wonderfully gracious host and the place we stayed in could not have been more perfect. She is perfectly situated to so much of what Venice has to offer. It was truly a privilege to stay in such a beautiful place. She also made sure our transportation was taken care of and is extremely responsive. I knew all of our needs would be met and I had not worries about anything. It is hard to even explain in words how amazing this place is and how wonderful the host is. I can sum it up like this, if you are visiting Venice and Ilaria's place is available, you need to book it and stay there. You will not regret it if you do.
