My stay in Mestre in the little home with a garden was so nice I stayed an extra week. Mara and her sister, Fer, are the best hostesses; very thoughtful, considerate, and caring people. They were always available for my many questions and so very helpful. They went above and beyond to ensure I was happy and taken care of. They surprised me one evening by bringing me beautiful fresh grown tomatoes from their garden; very tasty.

Finding such a gem of a place to stay made my experience in Italy so much more enjoyable. It felt like home; very quaint, comfortable, clean, and private. I love the kitchen that I was able to prepare all my meals with wonderful food from the grocery store conveniently located less than 5 minute walk. The flat is also very conveniently located to public transportation, making it very easy to get around.

I look forward to returning to Venice and staying at Mara and Fer's place.

Thank you for everything!!! Grazie di tutto.
