If you're going to Venice, look no further--this apartment is amazing! It's a quick walk from the railroad station (less than 5 minutes) into the heart of Venice and with Antongiulio's directions it was easy to find. Antongiulio was easy to communicate with (we're English speakers) and he met us at the apartment to show us around. We were his second guests through Airbnb (May 2019) and from the moment we walked in the front door we knew we were in a special very beautiful place. It's one of those places where you say, "Wow, how did we get so lucky?" Both rooms have large windows overlooking a small canal where you can watch the gondolas , along with people on the bridge nearby taking photos of the passageway, as it is just so beautiful. We are two people traveling and prefer separate rooms, so the extra bedroom was perfect. All rooms, including the bathroom, are beautifully appointed and the antique furniture throughout makes it feel like you are in Old Town Venice--which you are! Even the lighting is exquisite and the tiles in the large bathroom make it feel like a 5-star hotel. The master bedroom has a large walk-in closet, which was also really nice for storing away my luggage. There is a fairly large well stocked supermarkt just a few doors down the sidewalk and the apartment has a small refrigerator to keep items that need to be kept cold. There are many fabulous restaurants and shops close by, plus if you get a water bus day pass it's just a short walk to a stop one step removed from the train station (to avoid crowded lines) and to glide your boat trip through the scenic Grand Canal. The apartment is so lovely and Antongiulio is such a perfect host, that there is no place else we'd rather stay in Venice!
