Silva was a fantastic host !!Always quick to respond and very organized. We were greeted at Arsenal boat stop by Silvia's assistant Dileep who was very accommodating and helped us to get settled in upon our arrival. The apartment was even better than advertised - very clean and well stocked for anything you might need. In addition the apartment was well within walking distance to any of the major sites as well as numerous amazing neighbourhood restaurants. We will definitely stay with Silva again should we return to Venice ! Adam & Kathy. Vancouver, Canada
