Edoardo was an incredible host and very helpful. We are Americans and dont speak Italian so it was nice to have English speaking host. The flat was small but just what we needed. It was clean and the air conditioning was great. Especially at night - the air conditioning was important because there are mosquitos that come out at night in Venice. If you leave the Windows open in Venice, you will get a lot of mosquito bites. We saw other travellers covered! It was nice being able to walk a block to the Co-op and get eggs, cheese, procuito, and fresh fruit for making breakfasts. Breakfast in Italy are usually espresso and a small treat and it was great having a kitchen to make a bigger meal. The location is a 8min walk to St. Marks Square. 4min walk to the ferry. Which was perfect for us. Edoardo told us where to watch the regatta storica and we had the best view of the event. He also recommended the best gelato spot and a traditional Italian treat that was my favorite of the trip. He made our trip much better.
