We had a wonderful time in Venice and Mario's apartment was very central and close to several vaparetto stops. Mario was a lovely man and met us as agreed and carried out heavy case through a the many alleys, squares and bridges to the apartment. We got lost several times- A map, some local information about local food stores, good places to eat and what to do with the rubbish would have been helpful. We met at Niki's cafe which was a fantastic place and to be recommended.
The space was as described, tho a few minor things could have made it more comfortable. The toilet seat was broken, some bedroom cupboards has empty boxes, rubbish and other stuff as if the place had not been fully prepared for us. However overall we were satisfied with it
