We arrived in Venice with no working phone and no charged computer, so we were left without any way of contacting Andrea, the host, to let him know we had arrived. Just when we thought we were out of luck, Andrea came to the rescue and miraculously found us on the Venice streets. The apartment is a perfect mix of old and new, and is located in a quiet square just outside of the main tourist area. We highly recommend it. Hopefully we will be back soon!
