We had a lovely stay at Cristian's place. The apartment was a little smaller than we imagined it to be, but it was perfect for what we needed and good value for the location. The location was ideal, not too close to the hustle and bustle of San Marco, but not too far a walk from the main attractions there. We enjoyed a nice dinner at one of the restaurants Cristian recommended on our first night. On our final day our flight was not until the evening, and Christian let us store our bags in the flat while he cleaned it, which was very helpful. We would definitely stay again if we returned to Venice.
