Fabio is a great communicator! From the time before we arrived throughout our entire stay, he answered all of our questions and texts about everything! It is very easy to get to his home from the Marco Polo airport. We took the Alilaguna water taxi (orange line) right to his doorstep practically (Guglie stop). We enjoyed a beautiful view of the canal from our window and appreciated staying in the laidback Cannaregio area. Fabio greeted us and showed us the kitchen and how to use the coffee maker. We loved breakfast every morning before starting off on our days of sightseeing! The room was very clean and the bed was comfy. The shower is small, but that's the way it is in these Italian apartments. It was the same in Florence. Didn't bother us. If I were to come back, I'd stay in the exact same place!
