Ugo was a fabulous host in every way. He waited patiently for us despite our delayed flight, he offered us lots of advice and suggestions on good restaurants and directed us to the best gelato. It was wonderful to have great tips from a local.

The apartment was excellent - clean and fresh with comfortable beds, lots of storage and a small but practical kitchen.

There were plenty of fans around the place which helped to alleviate the heat at nighttime and Ugo also provided anti-mosquito devices which were effective in keeping the pests at bay.

The area was lovely; close to good restaurants, well-placed for getting around Venice and really quiet and peaceful.

I'd very much recommend Ugo's apartment - it helped to make our stay in Venice really enjoyable.
