If we could give Marco more than 5 stars as a host, we would do it. My husband and I are Airbnb hosts and have stayed at dozens of Airbnb locations around the world. I can honestly say that Marco was the best, most responsive and helpful host that we have ever had the pleasure of connecting-with. His communication was almost instantaneous. His help in arranging all of our water taxi's as well as arranging a friend of his to meet us at the dock and bring us to the house, then walk us around the neighborhood....was phenomenal. His friend even spoke to the waiters at one of her local favorite restaurants - that had no reservations available - and got us a table for dinner. Marco checked on us by email regularly.
His apartment was very very nice, comfortable and had all the amenities that we needed. It was in a wonderful location on a quiet side street within a short, easy walk to St. Barnabas square/piazza. A perfect location.
I highly recommend Marco's home as a wonderful airbnb rental. We will be returning to Venice in 2 years and will definitely try to stay at Marco's home again.
