What a great stay in Venice! Communication with Ariella was very easy and she always responded quickly to any messages we sent her prior to and during our stay. The location is near a very convenient water shuttle stop and we were met as soon as we stepped off. The person who greeted us, Luca, was kind enough to sit down with us for several minutes to go over a map and give us an overview of the city. The apartment was very spacious and has great views of a canal in front and a beautiful courtyard in back - everything matched the pictures very well. Very easy to get to the major sights but still in a quieter neighborhood where it feels like you're among the locals. The only criticism that could be made was that there was only one roll of toilet paper left for a several-night stay, and no paper towels/dish rags (we ended up just using an extra hand towel from the bathroom - for the dishes, not the TP haha). We'd definitely recommend the apartment and would certainly use it again during a future visit. Thanks Ariella!!
