Host was very friendly and explained the apartment and area well and answered any questions that we had. Aparment is as pictured and is very clean. We had plenty of room for the 4 of us and was in a great location only a short distance from San Marco square (handy to pop back to rather than pay to use toilets). We felt very safe with the semi private courtyard. The cafe just outside the gates was good to buy croissants for breakfast.
