We would stay here every time we visit Venice and surrounding area! Michela was amazing from the start - she arranged a private driver to pick us up from the airport, who was so informative, friendly, kind, and walked us right up to the building where we were greeted by Michela. She made us feel so welcome and gave us a tour of her incredible and clean apartment, and filled us in on good places to visit as well as transportation information for getting into Venice. Her apartment is in a great location for visiting Mestre, which we enjoyed very much the restaurants, gelato shops, and cafes being so close. Also, the tram is so close to her apartment to catch directly into Venice. It was a wonderful stay. Arriving into a new place can sometimes be a bit stressful and overwhelming when you're not sure what to do or where to go, or especially when you can't speak a lick of the country's language. Michela made us feel so welcome and safe... it was almost like arriving at a friend's house. We absolutely would return and stay for longer next time. Thank you, Michela!
