Our stay at Valentina's apartment was amazing.
First of all: the location was perfect. Not in the busy city centre of Venice, but just on the other site of the entrance road. With a tram-stop verye nearby (just a minute walk) we were able to be in the centre in like 10 minutes. A ticket costs €1,50.
Secondly: the hosting of Valentina (and her sister) was perfect. Any questions? Send a text and within a few minutes Valentina answers them. Her sister welcomed us at the apartment and gave us all kind of tips (for public transport, hotspots, etcetera). Every morning there was a nice breakfast with coffee waiting for us in the hallway. Perfect!
Last but not least: the city of Venice is beautiful. Yes, it is touristic, but you absolutely must have seen it once. And when you walk off the main streets, you can discover Venice in a different and more relaxing way.
Ciao!
