Manuela and Stefano are the perfect hosts with a beautiful, well-equipped, clean apartment in a great location. Stefano met us as we disembarked from the boat from the airport and in a matter of minutes we were in the apartment. It's the first time we have stayed somewhere that it was even better than the pictures. There is a delicious, well-priced restaurant steps from the apartment that turns out is a favorite of locals. The location of the apartment felt very safe and close to great little shops, restaurants, snack bars, and Piazza San Marco. The washing machine worked great; there is a laundromat around the corner in case you need to dry anything faster than the hanging dry available at the apartment. We would definitely love to stay in this apartment again the next time we visit Venice. Thank you for a wonderful apartment to call "home" while we were in Venice!
