My husband and I were visiting Italy for 2 weeks and visited Rome, Florence, Venice and Cinque Terre- Riomaggiore. We used air bnb for each place and were pleasantly surprised that Michele's place was by far our favorite! It's close enough to the Grand Canale and the Square but far enough away from all of the tourist spots. We actually only spent 30 minutes near the Grand Canal and spent the rest of the time exploring Castillo. There are beautiful parks and restaurants that the locals eat at and I highly recommend avoiding the tourist spots- take your picture and then move on ha! Michele also was great with communicating with us and allowed us to check-in early and leave our luggage after check-out so that we could explore the city a bit longer before we had to leave. All in all, you can't go wrong by choosing this place!
