Alessandro was a great host and his apartment was the cleanest and most beautiful Airbnb apartment I've ever stayed in, and I dare say I've stayed in quite a few of them over the years. I felt right at home in his apartment, and in fact, instead of spending the day out sightseeing most of the time, my companions and myself found that we prefer to spend most of our time in the apartment as it was just too comfortable for words.
Another thing worth noting, my husband thought someone broke in and stole his iPad while we were out. We called Alessandro in the middle of the night to seek help and he was extremely patient and helpful in trying to help the situation. Good thing was that we found the iPad eventually and my husband had dropped the iPad into the slips of the sofa, so there was NO BREAK-IN. We were very impressed with Alessandro for being so understanding and patient at our idiocy!
Overall, great experience and I'll definitely like to stay in Alessandro's apartment the next time we visit Venice.
