Nadia and the family were great hosts, they helped me (and my travel partner Jenny) with a last minute booking and everything was above all expectations. We arrived in the morning and Kate welcomed us with Italian coffee, just what I needed after a 3 hour bus trip and only 7 hours for me to explore Venice. The room looks very luxurious and the place is extremely clean and nicely decorated with a great mix of east european and Italian features. I had an evening flight so I never met the rest of the family but from what Jenny tells me they were fantastic in every aspect, she felt like she was visiting my extended family even though we have never met before.
