We were able to meet Alessandro at the time and place we had agreed upon about without any issues. He spoke very good English and was very helpful in telling us about the apartment and the neighborhood. There was also a binder with information about the apartment and the neighborhood that we found to be very useful, and we had one of our best meals while in Italy at one of the recommended restaurants. The apartment was clean, updated, and perfect for our needs! We also liked the neighborhood of Cannaregio, as you can find restaurants away from the tourist crowds. As our stay in Venice was the midpoint of our trip, we had planned on doing laundry and were disappointed there was not a dryer as the listing had stated, but we were able to use the drying rack with no issue. All in all it was a great apartment, and we would definitely stay here again! Thanks Jacopo and Alessandro!
