All-around Wonderful experience! Beautiful apartment on a quiet street, just a couple minutes away from the contemporary art Biennale sites. Via Garibaldi location in Castello is perfect to get the true feel of a "less-touristy" Venice, but you can still walk to Piazza San Marco in ~10 minutes. i loved having a grocery store so close and a fully equipped kitchen. You can really feel at home in the flat. Wifi, ac, washing machine, are additional perks. Communication/Key exchange- simple, flawless. Easy access from the airport to the Arsenale stop via Alilaguna. Very kind informative hosts, easily accessible and accommodating. Highly recommend Claudia's sunny spacious apartment.
