We had a fantastic stay at Francesco's lovely apartment! We loved the location, it's a convenient walk or ferry to everything in the city while also being in a slightly quieter residential area. Also super short walk to get to/from the train and bus stations. Communication was great and very helpful, and Luciana who met us for our check-in explained everything in detail and gave us many helpful recommendations and restaurant suggestions, and a map which she highlighted with various places to see. The apartment is spacious, clean, renovated, and beautiful. Central A/C was a big feature for us, especially during a heat wave. Overall a very comfortable stay, we will definitely come back! The terrace is an added bonus! Highly recommend the nearby wine bars: Adriatico Mar, and Cantina Arnaldi - locals and great wine selection! Also the BEST meal we had in Italy on our whole 3 week trip was at the restaurant "Nevodi" on Via Garibaldi east of Piazza San Marco (make a reservation because it's quite popular!)
