We would give the apartment, our experience, and Roberto an A+ (or a "30 e lode" in the Italian university context)! We couldn't have been happier with the apartment itself and the location, nor more comfortable, nor felt more welcome. Roberto was fantastic from the time we queried about the apartment to the time we stepped on the Alilaguna to head back to the airport. So kind, thoughtful, quick to respond to our every question, and generous with his time and suggestions. And a wonderful to talk with about every topic!

The apartment itself is perfect for 2 people with a fabulously comfortable bed, a lovely lounging area filled with antiques, and an excellent dining-kitchen area. Everything was spotlessly clean and worked perfectly.

The bathroom is beautiful with a wonderful rain-head shower and every modern convenience (we loved the heated towel racks, great lighting, and large sink!). There is ample room for cosmetics on the various shelves. There was an abundance of towels of every size, and back-ups.

The bed and pillows were extremely comfortable, sheets lovely, and as quiet as could be (no street noise, quiet neighborhood). Lots of drawer and armoire space to hang and put away clothes.

The kitchen was perfect-- large fridge, great gas stove and oven, and lots of space for dry goods. Plates, glasses, silverware, big bowls, kitchen instruments-- it was all there in abundance! We cooked a lot and were so happy to have everything we needed available to us. There were also all the cleaning supplies we needed, a washing machine for clothes, and a drying rack (clothes dried in a day!).

We were at I Felzi for 2 and 1/2 weeks ( Dec-Jan) and it was quite cold in Venice, but the apartment's heating worked perfectly and we were always cozy.

The wifi also worked perfectly.

The neighborhood is wonderful-- a few steps away from great cafes, a supermarket (Coop), a fresh fruit and vegetable market, a pharmacy, a cinema, and all kinds of shops. A real Venetian neighborhood. It is quiet and not touristy. Ideal place if you need to work while you are in Venice, and/or if you like to feel like part of the local community.

We loved everything about I Felzi. And we loved Roberto and his family. Although Roberto and his family live in a different part of Venice than the apartment, we felt like we were old friends of the family being hosted with love and great care.

We would (and will!) recommend I Felzi to any and everyone (a couple, or a single traveler) who seeks a beautiful, comfortable, quiet, impeccably furnished, thoughtfully-designed refuge in the real Venice.
