Monica's place was perfect. The location was fantastic (5-7 minutes' walk from Piazza San Marco, right next to the Giglio vaporetto stop, and less than 10 minutes' walk from the Accademia Bridge and Dorsoduro). The apartment itself was clean, thoughtfully furnished, and charming...a small space, but very functional and usable for two people. Be aware that there are 4 flights of stairs to get up to the apartment (it's Venice)! Communication was mostly with Federico, who was very kind, flexible, responsive, and helpful with local tips. Our few communications with Monica were great too. Highly recommend!
