Adriano’s apartment is fantastic. It had everything we needed and was very clean and comfortable. We especially appreciated how quiet it was and Adriano was very gracious, responsive and helpful whenever we had any questions or needs. We would not hesitate to stay there again and are already talking about our next visit. We loved everything about our stay and coming “home” to this cosy apartment.
A few tips: there is an exceptional restaurant in the neighborhood called La Zucca, which we highly recommend and is vegetarian friendly. One of our best meals was on the island of Murano, at Acquastanca Osteria. And if you are taking the Orange Line water bus to the airport at the end of your stay, leave some extra time because you might have to wait for more than one (or two) boats before there’s room. If you’re going to the island of Burano, make sure you include a visit to nearby Torcello and be sure to climb the bell tower. And for a great aerial view of Venice, be sure to pre-book an on line reservation for the free viewing platform on the roof of the Fondaco dei Tedeschi, a luxury shopping center next to the Rialto Bridge.
