Host Marco (Cristina's husband) was there to greet us on arrival. He was great, very welcoming and friendly! The place was comfy and cozy as shown in the pictures. Location was convenient with many highly ranked tripadvisor restaurants nearby. It was away from the tourist crowd but close enough to all the attractions. We arrived a few hours earlier than the check in time and were lucky enough to leave our bags with Marco until the room was ready. In the meantime, Marco took us on an epic boat ride through the canals and around the beautiful islands. It was truly an amazing experience and wonderful memory we had in Venice. Thank you for the lovely stay!
