We had a wonderful stay in Venice at Leonardo's place and though he was not there to welcome us, his instructions were very clear and we did not have any problems in checking into the apartment. He was also always in touch with us and made sure we had a good time. He also gave us tons of recommendations, which was very helpful.

The apartment is centrally located, especially to the Airport and the other Venetian islands by water boats. All the major attractions in Venice is walkable from the apartment. (Pro-tip: take the free walking tour of Venice on your first day!)

The place itself was well equipped with nice common room and a simple, but sufficient place to cook. The room itself was cosy, but a little cold as the house heater was in the kitchen. However, we did have a small electric heater in our room which helped. The description of the place was accurate and all the amenities were provided.

Overall, it gave us a nice experience of living as a local in Venice and we would definitely stay at Leo's place again given the chance!
