Communication with Riccardo was efficient and check-in was easy. The apartment itself is simply wonderful... large and open and airy with very high ceilings, big windows, and lots of light. Plenty of comfortable places to sit and dine and the little balcony overlooking the canal and Campo Sant'Angelo in the near-distance was delightful. Period furniture and oil paintings and a beautiful atmosphere all-around. It looks just as charming as in the photos, but they don't capture the size. Also, the bed was big and very comfortable. And the AC worked well. There were plenty of dishes and glasses and utensils, etc., everything it said it would have, though some things are a little old and worn, nothing that bothered us much at all. We would have liked a toaster or toaster oven and we were glad we brought a bluetooth speaker to listen to music. Still we would choose this beautiful, old, well lived-in place every time over a newly-renovated spot filled on an IKEA shopping spree. And finally, the location is amazing—as central as one can imagine and still in a quiet little corner away from the crowds. Highly recommended.
