Silvia and Pietro were very good hosts. They were easy to get a hold of, and very quick to answer our questions. The apartment is as described and we would definitely stay again. The location is excellent, right next to the vaporetto. There is a great little supermarket, Punta Simply, nearby. Beautiful views from the apartment, including the canal below. i travelled with two children and my mom- four total- and we had plenty of space.

The beds were firm compared to US standards. But we all enjoyed the beds and had no trouble sleeping.

There are mosquitoes and we did get bit. And since there is no A/C this poses some challenge. But if you close windows and use the fans, it's pretty good. If you leave the windows open during the night, you'll probably get some bites whether you use bug spray or not ( at least that was our experience).

The only trouble we had-- hot water was not working one morning. it was the first morning we arrived and Pietro was out shortly after we called to fix it. It wasn't too much of an inconveniece for us, and it seemed like an unusual issue. Also, we were discouraged from using one of the showers, because there was no curtain. Again, this was no problem for us at all, because the other shower worked fine and we still couldve taken a bath. The wifi worked well, and we had no issues using it.

The building is a great building.

Thank you Silvia and Pietro for being so kind and such nice hosts.
