Giuliano was a very nice host. He was waiting for my friend and I even before we arrived. Checking in was really smooth and easy. He has great knowledge of Venice and even recommended a sight-seeing route that triumphs what we have even planned. The apartment was very near the train station and really spacious with a well equipped kitchen. Giuliano was kind enough to even leave us with a small parting gift. Possibly the only downside was the lack of WiFi in the apartment but with so much to see and do in Venice there isn't much of a need for it.
