Simone was a fantastic host. Our flight was delayed a few hours due to weather but he still waited for us at the Apartment. The Apartment is absolutely stunning with 3 great bedrooms, 2 nice bathrooms, washer/dryer, a great common room and is in an absolutely perfect setting.
We had 6 people, 3 couples, and had tons of room and couldn't have dreamed of a better place to call home in Venice. The location is right outside of the grand canal and has access to a fantastic set of restaurants, gelato, bars, shops and supermarket just 50 feet away. It is also far enough away from San Marcos that you avoid the crazy tourist hustle and bustle, but close enough to walk and enjoy all the sites.
Simone gave us great details of restaurants and bars, as well as the metro and the best ways to get from Marco Polo airport directly to the airbnb.
When we go back to Venice, we will definitely be staying here again!!
