Wow- everything about our stay was better than we could have expected. It started with Roberto's warm welcome upon our arrival at the Sant' Angelo boat stop. The entrance to the apartment is literally just steps from the boat stop. It couldn't have been more convenient! No hauling our luggage through the uneven stone streets of Venice. We were a group of 8 - four adults and four kids ages 8-13- and everyone loved the apartment. It was an easy 10-15 minute walk to all of the tourist sites and great restaurants were close by. There was plenty of room for everyone to spread out and relax after a long day of sight-seeing. The kitchen was perfect for making dinner one night when the kids were too tired to head out and for breakfast every morning. The highlight was the rooftop terrace. The views were amazing and the perfect place for the adults to sit and drink wine while watching the sun set. The air conditioning in the bedrooms was amazing and kept everyone cool while sleeping. They have a nice big tv which was great when it was time to relax and user friendly to work. Francois was a great host- reaching out to us before, during and upon our return home to ensure we had everything we needed. His restaurant recommendations were all great as well. We look forward to the opportunity to return to this amazing city and stay in Francois's apartment.
