Giovanni is a wonderful host and very punctual. He was already at the landing when our water taxi arrived and helped us with our luggage to get to the apartment and up the stairs as well. The place has been recently renovated and is simply beautiful. It is spacious, very clean and well located. He had a map for us with all the points of interest around the neighbourhood which really helped us. A light burned out in the bathroom one morning and I texted him about it. He showed up at the door a few minutes later to change it right away. The kitchen & living room is a nice open area, perfect for cooking and relaxing after a day of exploring the city. On the last day, Giovanni allowed us to store our luggage on the main floor after checkout so we could visit the city some more before leaving for the airport. This was greatly appreciated! Overall we enjoyed our time there and highly recommend this place to anybody who is visiting Venice.
