We really enjoyed staying at Matteo’s apartment. It was in a great location not far from the Rialto bridge and a lively area filled with shops and restaurants. Check in went well and even we arrived a bit earlier than we thought, we were still met by someone. That someone was Matteo’s mother, Sandra, a very kind and energetic woman. I didn’t know how we’d know her or she’d know us but within a few minutes at our meeting spot, Sandra introduced herself and showed us to the apartment. As we walked, she pointed out different points of interest, which we appreciated. The only thing to know is the door that opens the apartment itself can be tricky to open since it uses an old key, so be gentle and patient.
