This was the first time we stayed at a private room and the experience was flawless. When we got to the apartment, Claudia clearly explained how everything worked. The bedroom is bigger than what you see in the pictures. It's nicely decorated, very clean and the bed is really confortable. Since the kitchen cannot be used (you can leave food in the fridge), they have set up a sort of breakfast table with an expresso machine, jams, nutella, toasts and cookies. That was awesome! The apartment's location is great also. When you get from the train station you are only one bridge and a half away to the apartment. Thank god! Venice's bridges are not built for tourists (those steps!). Claudia and her friend (can't recall her name) also gave us recommendations for places to eat which were not touristy. I would definitely stay again with them!
