I loved staying at this place. It's wonderfully quiet and tranquil, and it's a great pleasure to have the outdoor space. Murano is charming—there's a real Italian small-town feel about it, despite its closeness to Venice. I was there for a month's stay, having a kind of writing retreat, and the apartment was perfect for that. I imagine it would also work well as a calm place to return to after sightseeing in Venice.
Another thing I very much liked was the kind and relaxed (though also efficient) hosting style. Vincenzo came to meet me off the ferry from the airport, which made things very easy, and I appreciated the home-grown aubergines and tomatoes from the garden! There was quite a lot in the apartment by way of food and toiletries, etc. left by previous renters, and also practical things like laundry liquid, which makes it very easy to settle in. I liked that—it makes the place feel very relaxed, almost as if you were borrowing an apartment from a friend.
