Gianluigi's apartment was perfect for us. It's in a very quiet area, but still not a long walk to the train station. The biggest grocery store I've seen in Venice is less than a 5 minutes walk. Having 2 toilets was a great advantage when travelling with 3 girls and my wife. Gianni himself was a most accommodating host. Even though we ended up being more than 1/2 hr early he was already there waiting for us and had an excellent map made up of all thing we needed to know as well as the basic makings for a meal we all were hungry for. If it is helpful to you, he also speaks French very well. If his apparent is still available I will definitely be booking again on our next visit
