We just returned from our trip to Venice where we stayed in Andrea´s appartment. The appartment was exactly what we were looking for, and what we had expected. We had a great time, Andrea was very helpful, picked us up from the boat-stop, gave us a crash course on the map where to go and how to find restaurants, etc. We knew he was in the vicinity in case we needed something. The only disadvantage was that we could not use the nice garden because it was raining almost every day. We can only recommend this appartment.
