We enjoyed our staying in Lotus apartment in every respect. The hosts were very helpful and nice. I was met by Francesco at Vaporetto stop because I needed help with my heavy luggage. He sat down with me and showed on the map the location and places to see and eat in ( the restaurants were very good indeed). He took time to show the apartment and explained the rules and how everything works. We asked for iron and ironing desk - they were delivered next morning.
The apartment was very clean and testefully decorated. We all - including the designer in our group - fell in love with the design. Generally , we are very picky, but frankly speaking it was almost impossible to find anything to complain about. The view was garden's, so it was mostly very quiet. Yes, there is a restaurant in the building next to it, with some tables in the garden, but we heard moderate noise only one evening and no late than at 10. Closing window solved the problem.
The location was perfect for us - not very very close to the most crowded places, but still in walking distance or 2-3 stops by Vaporetto from the major points of interest. ( in fact everything was of interest for us).
I would love to stay in Lotus again.
Thank you so much, Francesco, Valentina and Andrea for your hospitality and successful efforts to make our stay comfortable!
