Andrea's place was a very comfortable and cozy place for our family of 4 to stay during our visit to Venice. Checkin was smooth as Andrea had his friend meet us at the pier to take us to the apartment since he was out of town. His friend was great at giving us an orientation as to which pier to go to Murano etc, direction of grocery store and even a map of Venice was provided. The apartment is located in an ideal area of Venice, close to the sights and shopping, yet peaceful and quiet. The apartment is as pictured and has everything you might need. Thank you Andrea for a wonderful stay!
