We enjoyed and recommend this quiet first floor apartment (up 12 easy steps) located off an internal courtyard with very good security. The apartment is as described and is a 10 minute flat walk from S.Toma’ vaporetto stop from which you can go to all major Venice attractions. It is in a good part of Venice close to two major highlights, the very impressive Santa Maria Gloriosa dei Frari church and the amazing San Rocco Church and its Scuola Grande especially the downstairs walls and upper floor ceilings with brilliant paintings by Tintoretto which we think are second only to Michaelangelo’s Sistine Chapel.

Federico was a great host both before and during our stay. He answered all emails promptly and gave us many useful suggestions. He met us at the airport and assisted us with sorting out the problem of our luggage not arriving on the same flight, and established that it would not arrive until the next day. Federico took us by car to the bus terminus and then on foot to the apartment, helping us with our carry-on bags over the bridges. In the apartment he sat down with us and gave us a map and many useful tips for our stay. He kept in touch with the airport and advised us when the bags were to be delivered to the apartment the next evening. We really appreciated his friendliness and personal assistance. Thank you, Federico.
