Marzia was so wonderful and welcoming. She met me at the train station, which was above and beyond, and gave me a detailed map, explaining many of her favorite places in Venice - and some touristy ones, too. She even invited me out to a weekly tango dance (under the full moon). The apartment is comfortable and convenient. It's out of the super crowded center of town and near the university, which I appreciated very much. I could still walk anywhere I wanted to go in 10-20 minutes. Thank you so much for the hospitality! I highly recommend Marzia's home.
