Sergio was a welcoming host. He arrived early at our meeting point. I don't speak Italian, and he doesn't speak English, but we found common ground through translation apps and by speaking French. His apartment is brilliantly located and feels really safe. The kitchen is sparkling new and clean. Our family of four loved the views and sounds of the canals and being within walking distance of all the major sites. The grocery store is well stocked but may be a bit of a walk for some -- about 15 minutes each way. We would definitely stay here again if we were to come back to Venice. We loved it. Thank you, Sergio!
