Marco knows that visitors have no sense of scale and accessibility in Venice, so he always meets guests at the train station, and the easy walk to the apartment served as our orientation tour in Venice! It was terrific. He pointed out the grocery, the best pizza place, and more. He was available on WhatsApp for all manner of questions and was even helpful before we arrived, sorting out our opera ticket quest. Marco grew up here, and he started his family in this apartment before out-growing it. It is fully equipped for long-term stays! We really enjoyed the kitchen and all appointments are first quality. If it were cooler we'd have loved the outside garden for meals and relaxing. We wished for a do-over in Italy, where we spent it all in Venice and at this terrific apartment!
