Had a good stay at Giacomo's place & would recommend it.

Overall, the apartment was very clean and modern. We were two people and had plenty of space. The location was good - in a quiet part of Venice but a short walk from the train station.

Giacomo was extremely flexible and accommodating. He had his colleague meet us at the train station to take us to the apartment, which was very helpful. He even went out of his way when I accidentally left my jacket in the apartment; he had it shipped to me in Florence in a timely manner before my return.

One downside was the lack of wifi during my stay. I do believe that Giacomo did everything he could to try to fix it during my stay, and it was beyond his control. But it was still a hassle to find internet cafes. Also, the sofa bed was not that comfortable and caused me some back pain.

That said, I would come back here if I was in Venice again.
