We absolutely loved the apartment! From the outside you wouldn't say, but you'll absolutely be surprised, once you enter the apartment. And it's as close to the centre of Venice as you could possibly be! Open the window in one of the bedrooms, and you look right into a lovely canal! The apartment is complete and clean. There's a well equipped kitchen with a washing machine, a simple bathroom and an air conditioner. There's a large bedroom with a double bed and a smaller one with two beds.
The owner Massimo is an enthusiastic, friendly and informative host. He told us the must-sees for our short two-day stay. His knowledge of Venice is extensive. His best tip: watch out for the huge amount of Chinese-owned shops and restaurants, if you want authentic Italian art, coffee or food: you won't see it upfront (sellers or waiters are Italian), but once you enter, you'll see a Chinese behind the cashier...
In short: without a doubt, we will return to Massimo's apartment the next time we visit Venice!
