Many people who I’ve talked to who have been to Venice didn’t like it - the crowds, rude locals, the cleanliness - all I heard was complaints. Now, I don’t know if everyone I talked to are just lousy travelers, but I know that it was this place that made my trip exceptional. Ilaria was the best host I’ve ever booked with - she was easy to communicate with, responded promptly, gave great advice, and booked our transportation for us. Her niece Valentina and Valentina’s husband Dmitry met us at check in. They were filled with helpful tips and advice. They gave us a map that included the best sights, restaurants, and bars in the area. The Airbnb was beautiful, it looks even better in person than in the pictures. However, a home can only add so much to a trip - it’s the hosts that can complete it. And these hosts were the best I’ve had the honor of staying with, by far. If this location is available for your dates, do not hesitate and just book it! Your trip to Venice will be incredible!
