I've just returned from a most wonderful 3-week Venice stay in Sandro's apartment. The flat is perfectly located, near a huge campo where daily life for locals goes on. It's near the famous fruit boat, a great bakery, bar, supermarket, gelato stand and a short walk to the vaporetto, which takes you anywhere!
The apartment itself was perfect as I was able to invite a friend to visit: two large bedrooms, bathrooms, one with an excellent shower, a good kitchen and sitting room. The place is clean and well-equipped.
Finally, Sandro as a host: couldn't be better! He met me at Piazzale Roma and took me to the flat. He responded to any request I made, quickly buying the few things I mentioned. More importantly, he was kind and completely responsive to help me out with my limited walking abilities. I feel I have a friend in Venice.
