Our stay in Venice with Simone at the Residenza Procuratie Due apartment was exceptional. Our original Italy itinerary had Venice penciled in a day trip. After finding Residenza Procuratie Due on Airbnb we booked a two night stay. Now we regret not having stayed longer! If we ever return, we will look to rent this again.
First, the location was nice with only a 10 minute walk from the train station. There is no climbing bridges or navigating a maze of backstreets with your luggage. The apartment enters through very nice quite alley just off the main street. Many shops and restaurants are right there by the apartment.
Simone was an excellent host. He met us promptly at arrival. Communication was clear and prompt. He also provided suggestions for Venice sites and restaurant favorites. Upon his recommendation we enjoyed very nice dinner in the Jewish Ghetto.
The apartment was wonderful. Cleanliness was exceptional. My wife has very high standards for cleanliness and this apartment exceeded all her expectations. The unit is an eclectic mix of modern appliances and comforts with very traditional Venetian décor. Everything was very well thought out in the arrangement and furnishing of the apartment.
I rent many Airbnb properties. With the combination of a great host like Simone and an outstanding apartment Residenza Procuratie Due, this I can tell you is the best we ever had. Highly recommend!
Thanks Simone!
