We arrived very late on Friday and Marco, his wife and daughter were all there waiting at the Arsenale dock for us. They were very welcoming and kind. They explained everything very clearly and the apartment was just like the photos.

It really is in the best part of Venice, quiet but still near to all the action and right on the water.

It is modern, very clear and a really beautiful spot.

The only issue we did have was when checking out. Unfortunately I had asked Marco before we arrived whether we could leave the bags at the apartment as we were checking out late that evening. Marco said yes, but he then explained we would need to have our bags out by 1400. Not the end of the world, but would have been better to have been clear before we got there.

It was a lovely space and Marco and his family were great hosts.
