What a wonderful stay at Roberto’s! My partner and I stayed for 5 days and loved every minute. It’s self-catering so Roberto didn’t have much to do with our stay but he greeted us upon arrival, ensured we had everything we needed (as he lives just upstairs) and said goodbye when we were leaving. The apartment is situated in an out-of-the-way location in a much quieter area than the main tourist areas but if you enjoy walking and peace, it’s the perfect balance. There are plenty of waterbus stops nearby so you won’t be stuck for things to do! Nearby, there are a few quaint bars to have drinks/food at in the evening and the nearest (affordable) supermarket is a 12 minute walk away. My partner and I chose to eat out most of the time but there is a kitchen in the apartment if needed. Both the main rooms in the apartment are air-conditioned and the remote controls both of them. Everything was clean and towels were provided. In the trees in Venice, there are very noisy crickets that screech a repetitive tune throughout the day. Despite not knowing about it prior to our arrival, we actually found it quite relaxing and they are silent at night so we didn’t lose any sleep.
Thanks so much, Roberto! If we return to Venice, we will be returning to your place x
