Adriano met me at the boat dock near the apartment. This apartment was lovely, clean and thoughtfully set up with the guest's comfort in mind. There was some good food stock in the refrigerator and coffee, tea and wine to drink. I wish my italian was better as there is a wonderful selection of art books. Adriano was genuine and gentlemanly, and made sure all my questions were answered. I loved Venice and this lovely apartment was so appreciated. It was everything as advertised. .
