Lucia is the most perfect host you will find in Venice. It all starts at the beginning where she will wait for you at the beginning of your journey, instead of you waiting for your host to arrive. Lucia takes you on a small trip to her apartment and can tell you lots of Venice. She takes picture of you with an eye for details and even negotiates with local gondola men to get a special reduced price for a romantic trip by gondola on the Venice canals. A short stop at a bar nearby her apartment and a nice glass of Spritz brings you to the place where you will be staying for one or more nights. The apartment is much bigger than it appears to be on the Airbnb website and is full of personal details and art. Everything is very clean and it is noticeable that she has thought on almost anything you could ask for. Before she left she presented us her fresh made tiramisu from a family recipe. The most delicious tiramisu we have ever tasted!
Later that day Lucia sent us the pictures she made with her own phone. She is some how a perfectionist and is really challenging herself to give you an outstanding time in Venice.
We did sleep okay in the sofa bed, but if we can have just one little thing to improve that would be changing the sofa bed for a normal bed with a thicker mattress and softer pillows.
If you’re looking for an apartment in the middle of Venice we definitely would recommend this beautiful place. Lucia will make your visit unforgettable.
