The apartment is lovely, perfect for 2, a great base for exploring a very beautiful city. We did have trouble finding the apartment to begin with, but Mario's son came to collect us when we did get lost - top tip....look out for the ice cream shop on the corner of the street.
Mario suggested that we take the Alilaguna waterbus from the airport to Guglie - which is on the Orange line. Unfortunately most of the folk arriving at Marco Polo airport were trying to catch the same boat and we were queuing for about 45 minutes before the company representatives decided to put on an additional boat to take those of us left waiting, into Venice. On the way back to the airport we decided to walk up to a stop on the blu line (a 15 minute stroll away) and much less popular, to ensure that we were able to get back to the airport without delay. This was a minor irritation during what was an unforgettable stay.
The aircon was a godsend as the temperature was 28 - 30 degrees while we were there. The bathroom was modern and clean.
We didn't cook during the three days we were there but the kitchen was well equipped and Mario had left tea, coffee and biscuits for us on arrival.
I would recommend this apartment, it was in a quiet side street very close to the bustle of the Strada Nova, with easy access to several supermarkets, bars, restaurants and gelateria. Thank you Mario we had a blast, your apartment is a great base for exploring a great city.
