I had a wonderful time staying at Monica and Fabio's place with my parents! The apartment is extremely well located near the Rialto bridge. This is super important if you're new in Venice and likely to get lost a lot! The map navigated us to the apartment in a strange long way, which was tough with luggage. But there is a very simple and direct route to get there from the vaporetto station. The street has many eateries and a grocery store as well.
The apartment is charming and extremely well stocked with essential groceries and toiletteries. Monica was very responsive by text and helped me out with many small queries about the city. Lovely experience and would definitely recommend!
