From start to finish our experience with Leone's place was absolutely perfect! Communication with him was top notch. He even agreed to meet us at the San Giacomo church rather than his normal meeting spot for visitors. We prefered to walk from the car rental drop off to meet him rather than take the Vaporetto. By the way if you're so inclined it is only about a 15 minute walk. Then took my wife suitcase from her and carried it to the apartment.
His stunning apartment is both secluded and centrally located to anything you might want to see in Venice. Though it cost more than some of the other options we considered, it was worth every penny! Don't hesitate to to put this place at the top of your list. You won't regret it.
