As it was the very first time in Venice for me and my girlfriend we were thinking of staying in a hotel. Finally, we chose a rental apartment and we are very happy for our decision.
Prior arrival we were given on a few information and directions.
We were greeted from Antonio's wife. A very kind and happy lady that made us feel more than welcomed. She showed us everything we need to know regarding the house operation and we were offered also a complimentary bottle of sparkling wine and a bottle of water plus a box of biscuits.
The apartment of Antonio is magnificent as it is fully renovated and offers everything that a couple may ask for (towels, bath amenities, free WiFi, hair dryer, plasma TV, tourist guides, a very comfortable bed after a long day in Venice, hot water, blankets etc).
In a few words we loved this place...PERFECT STAY! It is not cheap but for sure we did not regret the money that we spend for it.
Also the location was more than convenient for our stay and easily accessible from/to the airport.
We will stay again in this apartment next time we will visit Venezia!
