This is the 2nd time that we have stayed at Simone's and hope to stay there again. We love everything about it. Beautiful place and perfectly situated. We took the bus from the airport and it was an easy walk to the apt. It is easy to walk (or take the Vaporetto) to everywhere in Venice but located on a side street that is quieter and a bit out of the tourist fray. Simone and his brother could not be more helpful. Both of my visits have been w/a small group of us on work trips and it was great to be able to work together in the kitchen and living room but have the privacy of our rooms. The beds are very comfortable and we appreciated all of the books and nice details like the Nespresso machine and the bottle of wine. Can't wait to go back.
