My family and I recently spent 2 days and 3 nights in Aglaia‘s apartment. We were met by Greeter Giulia at Piazzola Rome as planning. She then led us to the apartment ( 10 minute walk along The canals, crossing 2 bridges. The apartment is very nice , clean and well maintained . It is a safe apartment as you need to go through 2 locked wrought iron gates to get to the front door. Outside the apartment is a canal and bridge. Across the bridge and a short walk is a square with several nice cafes, restaurants and a market to buy groceries. The apartment is on the opposite side of the Grand Canal from St. Marks Square but can easily be walked to in 15-20 minutes. During our stay Aglaia emailed us to see how things were going. During our stay there were 2 issues that DO NOT affect my review. Our stay in Venice was after 6 days in France and before a week long cruise. One reason that we chose this apartment was because of the washer and dryer. The washer and dryer is a combination unit so you can only do 1 load at a time. Despite directions from the host and reading the owners manual, we has problems with the dryer. Despite drying our clothes for several hours we still needed to hang our clothes on a clothes horse to dry. Check out time is 11:00 am. On our last day the cleaning service arrived at 10:45 am. As the cleaner did not speak English and we do not speak Italian it was awkward for us and we felt pressured to leave. Overall we enjoyed our stay and would recommend this host and apartment.
