We had a great stay in Venice! Giacomo and Giulia were very friendly hosts and always available through sms when we had any questions. Giulia met us at the apartment at the time we had agreed upon and was very welcoming and showed us the apartment. Also she gave us some tips as to good restaurant and where to find the supermarket (5 min walk). The apartment is in a beautiful old 'palazzo' which made the stay extra special. The apartment was big and wifi worked perfectly. The neighborhood was lovely: there were restaurants and shops, but it also had the authentic Venetian atmosphere. It was a 20 min walk to the touristy Rialto Bridge. On our day of departure Giulia let us leave our luggage in the apartment longer so that we had extra time to enjoy Venice before leaving.
There were only some (small) inconveniences: there is a popular restaurant/bar right next to the apartment which resulted in people being quite loud till 1 am (later in the weekend) right underneath the bedroom window. We ourselves were so tired after a long day of walking around Venice that we slept quite well anyway, but when you are not a good sleeper this could be a downside. Apart from that the bath shield didn't function well so the bathroom floor became wet at one point. At last, we missed some tea towels in the kitchen.
Please let us conclude by repeating we had a great time, thought it was a lovely, special apartment and we thank Giulia and Giacomo for being friendly hosts :)
