Martina is very good with communication and check in and out. She let me know about changes to the vaporetto service the day I arrived and met me as I needed to come off at a different stop. She also offered luggage storage on our last day.
The flat is compact and has everything you need including a kettle for the Brits.
You are right in the centre of Venice so every corner is only a maximum 25 minute walk in all directions. The only down side is the noise from the street which echoes up. It becomes quieter about 11am but starts up again 7am. It you are a deep sleeper like me it is not much of an issue but for light sleepers it can be quite noisy. Ear plugs are provided as this is not something that can be controlled by Martina so she has provided a solution.
I would recommend this apartment and the host highly. If you want to stay in the heart of Venice and have a good knowledgeable local host, this is the one to book.
