We stayed in Pietro's apartment for 4 nights during our recent trip to Venice. We arrived at about 8 pm, just as it was getting dark. We got a bit lost because we had difficulty reading the map and following the street signs but eventually found the apartment. Maura, a colleague of Pietro's was waiting for us and answered all our questions, She left numbers where we could reach her.
The apartment was exactly as pictured. The location was excellent. In spite of being centrally located it was tucked around a corner, off a narrow side street and was perfectly quiet. We really appreciated the quiet nights after long days of walking and discovering this magical city. There were many restaurants and cafes within a few minutes walk. Also a grocery store was only a short distance.
We really appreciated the air conditioning as it was warm and humid while we were there. The sliding door in the kitchen is right beside a small canal - we could practically shake hands with the gondoliers as they sailed by!
The apartment was very clean. We loved it and would happily return.
