Nicola was a very attentive host. After we arrived in Venice and got close to the apartment, he came to meet us personally, even though it was a little late at night, to make sure we understood everything about the apartment. The apartment was clean, quiet, and most importantly cool with air conditioning as the days in Venice were very humid and hot. Nicola also showed us recommended restaurants and ice cream shops on a map and we indeed we had some of the best food ever while in Venice. Quick tip for travelers: when taking a water bus back to Venice, please be aware of any possible worker strikes that might affect service or you may get stuck for a while. We had a great time! Thanks Nikola!
