Valentina's apartment was just as advertised. It was perfect for two couples for a one week stay. We loved the neighborhood. It had good restaurants, it was so close to a vaporetto stop that was never crowded, and easy to walk anywhere in Venice. It was so nice to feel like you were in Italy and not in the touristy and crowded part of the City. All communication was easy and Valentina's friend who greeted us was patient when we arrived later than expected due to a crazy shared water taxi ride and very helpful. I highly recommend this apartment and hope to someday return. The pictures were accurate and the kitchen was very well appointed.
