Our stay at Giovanni's was a unique authentic Italian experience, we spent 4 wonderful days at Giovanni's and it really experienced the charms and amenities of the local area - cafes and bars that all serve local Italian food with such charm and passion. We had solid mattresses for great night sleeps and check in was very easy. Giovanni was a pleasure to communicate with and really helped us when our flight was diverted to another airport hours away due to a storm. Giovanni was on call to assist through what's app with timetables of buses and trains to get back into Venice. A beautiful untouched area of Venice where the real people live and not one bit touristy.
