Summary: Highly recommended. The condition of the large apartment is excellent and the location is very convenient.
The apartment is located in a great location in Venice. The neighborhood is full of shops, cafes and restaurants, but the apartment location is very quiet. Venice has many wonderful neighborhoods, but I think it is best to avoid having to deal with luggage across the the city, which makes this apartment so perfect, only a 10 minute walk to the bus and train stations.
The apartment is very large and extremely well furnished and supplied, I can’t think of anything that we would have liked that was not there. The beds are very comfortable.
Michele met us at the bus station (where we turned in a rental car). He marked on a map his suggestions for cafes, wine bars and restaurants (we went to two of them and they were great), and a couple of more local sights that we might have missed. He spent time showing us all of the features of the apartment and answering our questions about Venice.
This is one of the nicest Airbnb places I have stayed in, and each of the four of us who stayed here in early October very highly recommend Michele and Georgia’s place. Given the crowds in Venice, we loved the Santa Croce neighborhood where there is still a bit of « old Venice » and fewer crowds, but it was quick and easy to walk to everything else we wanted to see.
