Cristian and Francesca's place is PERFECT! Cristian is a wonderful host and helped us from the time we booked until we checked out. You would never receive this type of specialized hospitality by staying in a hotel. He took us on a boat ride, invited us to see him on Murano island, and immediately responded to any questions or issues we may have encountered. Very accommodating! The apartment is adorable and in a nice and quiet neighborhood. It was great to feel like a local and come "home" to get away from the many tourists. I hope to make it back to Venice soon as I fell in love with this city. I will definitely be staying at their place again! Highly recommended to anyone visiting Venice!!! Thank you Cristian and Francesca for everything!!!!! Oh and just a tip- there are taxes they have to pay back to the Italian government so you leave those at the end of your stay (usually less than 20 euros probably)
