When I first read all of the glowing reviews on Airbnb, I was a bit skeptical, that any place and anyone could be so wonderful. I am happy to report that we had the same experience as many other guests. Michelangelo was an attentive host. He met us at the vapparetto stop and took us to his lovely house only a few minutes away. Throughout our stay we felt well taken care of and genuinely welcome. The apartment was clean and well appointed and each day started with a nice breakfast. The location was central to most of Venice and getting to most major sites was a 10-15 minutes walk. Both Michelangelo and his grandmother gave us tons of information and suggestions about what to do in Venice, including many activities that our 8 year-old thoroughly enjoyed and others that got us off the tourist trail. We enjoyed our stay so much we extended the week to 9-days. We hope to see Michelangelo and his grandmother again.
